The Business Christmas Party Can Be Costly

Last night I held my firms Christmas party. It is a small affair attended by those that I think have been good souls to and for Bamboo Strategy over the past year. Business stories were shared, including a few business travel nightmares, all in all it was a great time to chill out with some really good people.

It was after the party when I read about a recent poll done by Travelodge in the UK, that hangovers from Christmas parties will cost the UK economy about $1 Billion this year. Now I did not suffer any loss in productivity today but clearly based on this study, many will this holiday season. Enjoy reading the very interesting post Christmas party poll results from the attached link below.
