Who was in the right here?

Going to a buffet is a better idea, so you dont' need any excuse to get up when they start talking bullshit (they will)

I need your stance on the issue before offering mine.

Only absolute destitute poor losers eat at buffets. Take the high road here,you are worth more than eating out of community troughs. If I was an employee and it was a buffet I would simply not go

Depends on the buffet. It should be a quality buffet otherwise I'd advocate just for the restaurant.

Sit down restaurants give you enough time to get to know the lads, Buffets will make you feel like shit afterwards.

The restaurant seems more fitting, though the post below holds a good point. Being able to get up when people start talking nonsense or gossip is also a great reason to eat at a buffet.

Buffet. Everyone can choose their own meal and can eat as little or as much as they want.

Try to angle for something expense, if it's on the boss's dime. If you live in a city, I would recommend seeing if you have a Brazilian BBQ type of buffet around. Meat on swords and usually high quality salad buffet.

Stir fry buffet is good ... you're there to talk shit, the food is secondary.

I'd say buffet like fogo de chao or whatever it's called. Or do like Korean bbq

>> No.11384452

Depends. Is this a decent buffet, or a shitty run down Golden Corral one?

I say buffet might be better for a larger group, but like I said it depends on the quality and how much you are willing to spend.

>> No.11384455

Go to the ol' Golden Corral. Steak, ribs, chicken wings, brisket, roast, and much much more!

Golden Corral is one of the top buffets in the United States. If you go between 2pm and 4pm, you can get the early bird special!

Buffets are the worst. It's not the 1990s any more. Restaurants give you so much food now you're full. So a restaurant is an all you can eat affair generally.

In some cultures, it's not unusual for office workers to have some sort of holiday gathering, separately from any family or friend gatherings. Maybe things are different in your culture.

Start your own company and be the asshole boss with a revolving door of staff or learn that you have to work with people and instead of bitching you're better off trying to form atleast some kind of decent relationship with them.
