Tomorrow is my office coordinators last day. She accepted a position in the imaging department of the hospital. A few of us had decided to go out to a local restaurant for drinks and appetizers after work tonight for a farewell thingy.
I want to go, but I'm feeling guilty about not going home and cooking supper for DH and Levi. I haven't worked with her long and haven't gotten that "bond" with her that the other girls have...they've worked together for 4 years, I've been here 4 months.
I never really socialized with coworkers after hours...so why start now? On the other hand, it'd be nice to have a "girls" night and not worry about DH and DS...but I know I'd just be waiting to get it over with so I could go home and play with Levi.
Re: Help convince me
Is your H sick? Why would he not be able to handle making dinner and taking care of his son while you stay out for a couple of hours?
I say GO, have fun, it's good for you.
No he's not sick. I just have him spoiled. And he's always afraid to do something with Levi by himself...until he *has* to do it.
I'm going.
Agreed. Go enjoy yourself for a couple hours. Plus, you never know when those people could be in a position to help you out later in your career. I look at work socializing also as networking

Go, go GO! It's so important to get away and do some things for yourself once in a while. Trust me!
