[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, I know this party set-up isn't your choice, but a PSA for others - if you're leadership and can't afford to host at your house, just have a potluck at the office or a local park. So strange to make your underlings bring food to your home.

I once was invited to a similar one - for a nonprofit where lower level employees were making under 50k per year. Sign up genius for literally everything, including napkins etc. We arrived and the host lived in a HUGE penthouse in Georgetown with a beautiful view of the Potomac. Went on about their art pieces. So so tacky, left such a bad taste. [/quote]

So cheap!![/quote]

Seriously cheap! Reminds me of my first job out of college. My boss invited us to her McMansion. She actually circled her grocery receipt in red and divided among the number of attendees. None of us had enough cash + this was before Venmo.[/quote]

Ooh we need a side thread for these cheap employers. It's the best part of this thread. I had a tone deaf boss too and he invited everyone to his boat in Annapolis. I was a poor worker and only used metro. I didn't have a car and wouldn't afford a taxi without missing a student loan payment.[/quote]

That was a kind invitation from your boss.  Lose the chip on your shoulder.[/quote]
