"Office Christmas party"

After the annual office Christmas party blowout, John woke up
with a pounding headache, cotton-mouthed, and utterly unable
to recall the events of the preceding evening. After a trip to the
bathroom, he was able to make his way downstairs, where his
wife put some coffee in front of him.

"Louise," he moaned, "tell me what went on last night. Was it
as bad as I think?"

"Even worse," she assured him, voice dripping with scorn.
"You made a complete ass of yourself, succeeded in
antagonizing the entire board of directors, and insulted the
President of the company to his face."

"He's an a**hole - piss on him!"

"You did," Louise informed him. "And he fired you."

"Well, screw him!" said John.

"I did. You're back at work on Monday."
