No, it's not my fault that you are not properly dressed for the (very very upscale) workplace holidays party. It is not my responsibility to tell you every single thing you need to know about this place, especially when you don't bother asking anything to begin with.... let alone to anticipate every failure you will have in adapting to etiquette/culture here. I am your co-worker, not your supervisor/boss. Go home and change, and from now on learn to ask questions about things you are uncertain of beforehand--- or go back to your home country.  |

 Thermostat abducting assclown shows up in jeans and a "Chemical Engineers do it in the lab" t-shirt, and complains to you? They are serving Rum with plenty of 2 liter Diet Pepsi bottles right? You'll be fine after 5 tall ones. [T/J] At least you get a very very upscale holidays party.

This is a new group of morans. The closest thing I see here to anything appropriate (and I usually go just at the "minimum acceptable level"... lol) ... still misses by a mile. A very cheap, wrinkled , generic brand looking (like target or walmart "brands") dress shirt with very worn out jeans. Everyone else is in "knit sweaters" and jeans or , sweatshirt+jeans, or worse, a sweatshirt/sweatpants combo. This thing is in the luxury box of our univ. basketball arena. What are these people thinking? They are serving Rum with plenty of 2 liter Diet Pepsi bottles right?
