Senior Developer and project manager chatting about something or other at desk near me.
Dev: "We have this entity called Bates, but it is the only one".
Me: "In that case it must be the Master Bates.
Pause, shaking of head, carry on.

I find the work place the hardest place to pull off a joke. Most I attempt go down like a lead balloon. I made a wise-crack once about not being able to vote because they put most polling stations in schools and I couldn't go within 200-yards of one as part of my bail conditions. From the questions the bloke asked me for the next two weeks you could tell he thought I was a genuine paedophile.

As a comedian that has to make stuff up real quick, I find myself saying incredibly weird stuff at work - a lot of it bombs, even pretty good stuff.
Today I almost said on my arrival, "What's with all the burkas today?" (It is 0 degrees outside, and most women are covered head to toe except their eyes while outside.) I managed to realize it wasn't appropriate before it spewed out of my mouth.
That's what the holiday party is for; everyone that drinks loses their 7 second delay and the grounds are finally equal.
