Re: Company Xmas get together
Our company Christmas is on the 20th which is also payday. Coincidence? Anyways, if I don't actually have to work that day (I'm employed as a security guard), I'm thinking of wearing my kilt. Several of my co-workers know that I wear one and have seen pictures of me in it with mixed reactions ranging from laughs to compliments. I plan to stay just long enough to pick up my paycheck and leave. If asked what the hurry is in my leaving, I'll tell them I've been invited to a party by someone alot better looking than they are.

It all depends on the corporate and group culture, and the relationships of the individuals within it. You've had some sage advice above, but gauge the nature of the people and act accordingly.

This.
To my office party I would go kilted. To my wife's office party I did not.

Re: Company Xmas get together
Do it! I did it a couple of years ago, and after the party, most of the women lined up to have their pictures taken with me. I'm doing it again tonight, but I have the excuse that there's a kilt night right afterwards.

Re: Company Xmas get together
Our Christmas party is scheduled for mid-January... bleh... and in another state... double bleh... our corporate office is in Maryland. I am flying up and will probably bring my kilt and argyle.
Have fun and throw far. In that order, too. - o1d_dude

Re: Company Xmas get together
We had our holiday lunch last Wednesday. Here's a picture taken after we got back to the office.

I'm the one in RED. (I did not wear this to the restaurant - but I made a hit in the office later.) Since this is the first year we've been together as a team [new contract started last January] it was a surprise for the whole office.
