Fa-La-La-La-larious Moments From Holiday Staff Parties

We Didn't Know What We Didn't Know--Stories of Teaching Over Three Decades

Welcome to a holly-jolly whirlwind of awkward conversations, questionable gift exchanges, and a game of quarters that went TOO FAR! In this episode, we unwrap the chaos of school worker holiday parties. From the great pickle ornament debacle to a Koosh ball brawl, we’re spilling all the spiked punch on the festivities.

Listen as we tackle the awkward art of escaping small talk with "corner-standers," relive the horror of unwrapping a very personal gift, and share why caroling at strangers' homes is just plain weird. Spoiler: it involves a lot of fake smiling and wondering if you're allowed to close the door mid-song.

Whether you're the party planner forced to invent new games (hello, "Acro-Name"), the one-drink wonder who leaves by 8 PM, or the unfortunate soul cornered by Mr. 200 Cat Photos, this episode is for you. Pour some eggnog and join us for laughter, camaraderie, and a few lessons on what not to bring to a Yankee Swap.
