Last night (12/15) was my company’s holiday party. Since I started, everyone was hyping it up saying how great these parties had been in the past. This was just ridiculous, though.
The party was at a club called Crobar, a kind of exclusive celebrity hotspot. The venue is huge with one small lounge area, a much bigger lounge area, and an enormous room with a dance floor and sort of box seating on an upper level overlooking the whole room.
From 7pm until 1am, they had waitresses running around with crab cakes, shrimp, bruscetta, lamb chops, and whatever else I missed. There was a seafood bar with raw oysters, clams, and shrimp cocktail. Later in the night, they broke out with a whole baked salmon, roast beef, sushi…
When they opened up the room to the dance floor, music was blasting, flat-screen tv’s were showing pictures from past company parties, and there were two girls hanging over the bar from cloth streamers doing Cirque du Soleil type acrobatics.
The day of the party they gave out raffle tickets at the office. I think they gave away about ten prizes: gift certificates, an iPod video, plane tickets for two anywhere in the world, a five night vacation to Disneyworld. Grand prize: a flippin’ Mini Cooper S, red with a white top.
Craziest party I’ve ever seen.
