No Quirky Title for this Post

Last night the contractor that we’re teaming with up on my project hosted an International Housewarming Party on the roof of our office building. There’s so many different countries represented on this project (US, Australia, Austria, Japan, New Zealand, UK, Hong Kong and there still could be more than this) that a get-together was held with finger foods from each country to eat. The original choice for the US was hotdogs but a couple of people thought that hotdogs weren’t the easiest of finger foods, so we were represented by Buffalo wings w/blue cheese dressing and chorizos. Yes, a Spanish/Mexican dish was used to represent the US. Oh well … at least they were tasty. The entire shindig was catered and done quite nicely with the food and drinks being passed out by a wait staff.

I befriended a couple of other blokes from the office and we were one of the last ones to leave the party at 11:15ish, with a tub full of drinks still on ice. The contractor definitely didn’t skimp out on the party and it’s nice to be appreciated, even though as the head guy said, “there’s no such thing as a free lunch.” There might not be, but I definitely got my money’s worth of food & drinks out of them last night.
