To add insult to insult, I just took a piece of leftover cake from the baby shower that I did not attend.  :cool:

we had a baby shower at our office where everyone was given white onesies to decorate and give to the mom. I drew myself on mine.

One time at a former employer, we had a baby shower for one of our department admins. We reserved the company park/picnic outdoor shelter thing and had cake and games. There were like 3 people on the planning committee.

OH crap! Birthday lunch get together tomorrow. Given my faux pas below, I slammed the accept invite button as hard as I could immediately upon receipt.

OMG. I forgot there was a baby shower today!! (Which, incidentally, is probably why my bosses aren't here.) The big conference room where they are having it is adjacent to the break room. I got back from the gym, hair all wet, gym bag over shoulder, and barged into the break room. I immediately heard voices, looked, and saw the double doors to the conference room were open. I was in plain view of, like, ever-y-one in the entire rough ridin' office sitting there for the baby shower. It was almost over, and I'd obviously skipped out on it for my own personal agenda. So, I just gave a big smile, waved, got my lunch out of the fridge, and left. Some dude stared me down and gave me a friendly WTF look.

I'm acting purely out of self interest. I don't want to be some damn outcast. And I'm already on thin ice!

I closed my office door and will not come out till the end of the day. Hopefully they let the Uber eats guy in and he can come all they way up to the office to deliver.

The birthday lunch invite didn't really say who was having the birthday. I was like, "no big deal, I'll figure that out when I get there." It was like 15-20 minutes into lunch before I figured it out. The giveaway was when a girl broke a period of silence by thanking everyone for eating lunch with her on her birthday.

They made her a big card and put some printouts of personal pics in it that they'd obtained from her facebook account. And they all wrote semi-dirty jokes inside. For example, Q: what's the difference between a boy and girl snowman? A: snowballs!

Someone came in late because she'd just been in an auto accident. She started describing what happened and then the birthday girl interrupted to tell us about the time her car broke down and she was dressed like a clown and she didn't have a phone and the police wouldn't come because they thought they were getting crank calls and no one would stop because they thought she was just doing funny clown stuff rather than signaling for help.

The next get together is Saturday evening (well, excluding the bar tomorrow night, that is). It's an annual event. At someone's house. And it has a name. Beerfest.

We have an office party from 4:30-7 tonight. Booze, snacks, +1s encouraged, yard games, etc.  Supposedly it's for no particular reason, we had a Christmas party at a normal time in December.

I'm certain that it has nothing to do with two fairly key employees leaving last week...
:adios:

Isn't it a little chilly for yard games in Chicago or did you move?

So it was like a morale booster thing or a celebration of their departure?
