My old manager sometimes suggest we have one, but never plans them for us. More often those of us that are friends plan them for ourselves and don't invite bosses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2501399 Mon, 21 Mar 2016 08:59:10 +0000 snowjewelz 2501399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At my old job we had unofficial ones all the time!</p> <p>At my company now, never... Not that I'd really go anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2501206 Sun, 20 Mar 2016 21:27:12 +0000 PawPrints 2501206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time. They start at 4pm so it's not hard to have a drink and some apps and still make it home close to the normal time. Lots of people with kids so everybody really appreciates that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2501086 Sun, 20 Mar 2016 18:31:13 +0000 agold 2501086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any time my boss leaves early. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500972 Sun, 20 Mar 2016 14:43:48 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2500972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I worked in academic research and they had weekly research presentations where they provided beer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500318 Sat, 19 Mar 2016 00:47:19 +0000 birdofafeather 2500318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i work for myself, so i can pour myself a drink whenever i like! :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500262 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 21:55:21 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2500262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At my new job they don't seem to have a ton of company sponsored things but I was invited by one of my coworkers to a movie night tonight so it seems to be a sort of regular thing. I also am taking one class next quarter so it might be hard (with two very young kids!) but I'm going to try to be there at the next thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500242 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 21:27:41 +0000 catomd00 2500242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At least once a week for one thing or another! I usually go every couple weeks unless it's specifically for my team, in which case i try to attend every one that's for a "formal" occasion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500145 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 19:45:02 +0000 ShootingStar 2500145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every Friday at 4 in the cafeteria. Beer and food are provided. Used to even see people walking around with bottles of whiskey all afternoon. Then we had a cinco de mayo get a little too crazy and they scaled it back to just beer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500139 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 19:37:04 +0000 Mae 2500139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. Like 4-6 since I started in Jan! They are huge on socializing out of work. (It isn't a company-wide thing, just my team). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500119 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 19:13:04 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2500119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As far as I know, it's rare. We have an annual party but it's on the weekend. I wouldn't mind going once in awhile but I usually want to get home to my family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500115 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 19:09:09 +0000 hb3233 2500115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, occasionally there's a reception with alcohol to celebrate a major promotion or award but nothing regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500113 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 19:07:14 +0000 Ms. RV 2500113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unofficial ones, but I never go. The women's group has them, and I would go, but they around HQ forty five minutes away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500100 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 18:44:39 +0000 Alba4 2500100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I worked in publishing, yes, all the time. Now that I'm a teacher, not really. We have a big holiday party, retirement party, and end of year party that are well attended and people tie one on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-work-or-office-have-happy-hours#post-2500072 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 18:01:22 +0000 BSB 2500072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started having company wide happy hours. </p>
