Is it just me or office parties don't work for you either?

Nothing against those who love them. It's just that I would rather like to spend the time with my plans. But often, you don't always have a choice.

Hated office parties from my bottom of the heart. The only reason i went is because my manager would get offended if we didn't turn up. I stil cant understand how people put upa fake smile and pretend everything is professional. But I did that too..

Bro but how do you start engaging with girls? You might look good right? For someone who doesn't girls don't even talk casually to them except work related.

Dating apps don't work for everyone bro ๐Ÿฅฒ. Downloaded in my hometown rarely got matches and even if I get will soon get ghosted.

I like office parties. But, I hate those guys who drink and misbehave. They think we are chaddi buddies and think itโ€™s cool and ok to hug.

But on the other side there are good people as well whom you can bond with and talk . Maybe during office hours you might not have gotten a chance to work , or you want to understand something about a new technology or anything , you can seek their perspective.

We have every month. It's a small startup (~25) - we have unlimited drinks, play some sports or do some activity like we went for IPL, play golf, or arcade etc, food and back in 3-4 hours. It's nice especially in startups. If people are chill, you can have fun. Not every place is like that though, they judge XD

Unpopular opinion

I guess I am against most of people who live in Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai or any tier 1 2 cities. Why is there so much addiction to smoke, party culture and losing our own moral values? I guess a pack of cigar cause anywhere between 100...
