Pub or office.
Roughly a week from now I will get off a whirly bird on my return from the middle of no where and have to make a choice.
Do I:
A) go to the pub with people I've spent the last 2 weeks living / working with and done so on and off for the last year
Or
go into the office and say good bye to the people I've worked on and off with there for the last year
Am moving to start a new role in a new place next week.

Invite your coworkers to the pub with you
If I go to the office after the pub then there needs to be no indication that I've been in the pub.
We get back to what passes as civilisation at about 09:30 on Monday morning. The options at that point are to go into the office, or go to the pub.
If I go to the office first, then by the time I get there, go round and leave again, the pub trip will have finished as people head off for their onward travel.
If I go to the pub, I'm then unlikely to be sober, which isn't really considered an acceptable state in which to turn up at the office in at 11:30 (or ever).
Can't invite office people to the pub because it's at a time they should be in the office.
Sorry and all that.
As I'm here can I just say that I hope you went to the pub. If not, go tonight instead.
this.
I'm working til Monday so a while to make the decision yet.
Fiend - given the people, probably un sober enough to not get away with it, but am considering that option.
I'm moving up to a different site, but will likely be passing through the office again in the future as it's one of the main UK offices for the company I work for. The people I'm with at the moment I'll never see passing through, so is more of a final farewell for life type thing.
Going to the office after more than 1 or maybe 2 drinks is out, while my team wouldn't be bothered the chances of reception picking up on it when I sign in are pretty high.
Do did I. Even argued with someone. Then we got the dictionary. Ah!
