Our boss has decided what we will be doing on Sunday, 1. October:
He has reserved a table at the Oktoberfest (Augustiner Festhalle), took care of getting us admitted and two coupons for two 'Maß Wies'n Edelstoff'.
No need to fight with the Australians over a place to sit 
Edit: And yes, Nagy (if you ever see this), we are bastards

If you want to really keep your sit after the 2nd round... I would get a PVC bottle inside. Once you stand up and go to the toilette, no one can guarantee that your sit is still there when you come back.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Would this happen to be your boss?

So... you have become a capitalist lackey and a traitor to the working classes for the price of two beers and the chance to have more beer spilled on you by sweaty drunks. 
How the mighty have fallen! 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I have been called a capitalist/imperialist mercenary before. The pay was not so good, but I got to shoot and practice destroying things a lot.

Hmm. I keep it simple. I'm a whore, but at least I ain't cheap.

Being a member of the armed forces is one thing, but sinking so low as to praise the Boss?!

I once had a boss who at the end of nearly every working day opened a bottle of wine and starting passing round glasses ... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Personally, I'd rather socialise with my choice of friends, and not the Boss' choice.

It all sounds a cheap ploy to get the employees to talk shop amongst each other - and on a Sunday on top of that.

I worked at a small company that had a paid lunch every two weeks. It was easier for the bosses to pass out paychecks that way.

paychecks? Surely today it's all automagical direct debitization?
But I do remember the days of getting an envelope with real cash inside, definitely gave a more rewarding and personalised feeling - after that it was off to the pub.
Also every Friday lunch time it was off to the pub [right across the road] for the weekly meeting - first rule of that meeting: no shop talk, second rule: no going back to the office until Monday ... after all would not be good to be in the office with alcohol breath. (Years on I still can't concentrate on work after midday on a Friday,)
signature upgrading ... please wait.

Brilliant? Americans have severe problems with all kind of things (like metric units) and always assume that the rest of the world has them as well.

Errr... the entire world deals with time zones and a good portion of the Western world deals with some form of daylight savings.
But you just go ahead and feel smug if it lets you sleep at night.

Just use military (ZULU) time and your problems will disappear.

And now you have two problems, in my experience.

I think that the PC term is "issues".
we wouldn't want to be non-PC, now, would we?

That's nothing... canadians have to deal with a group of angry hamsters that from time to time get drunk and start playing with the electronical circuits and the cables... that, and not to mention Sean
