Avoid office-party regrets
December 10, 2007: 5:17 PM ETIn a recent poll, Monster.com asked visitors to its website what (if any) regrets they had regarding office holiday parties in the past. The most frequent response, at about one-third (31%) was "not showing up," followed by "drinking too much" (20%), and "arriving late" (18%), writes Fortune's Anne Fisher in her December 11 Ask Annie column.
