Even with budget cutbacks, busy schedules, and a lingering recession, we still find time to get together with friends and coworkers to celebrate the holidays. For those still employed in the standard business model, here are a few decorum reminders for the annual holiday office gathering:

1. The punchbowl is NOT your friend.

2. Assume that everything you say or do will end up on Facebook for all to see.

3. You will have to go back to your routine and face those same coworkers at some point.

With these tips in mind, have a merry holiday season and a wonderful and prosperous New Year!
