This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Welcome to hell.

https://thenorwayguide.com/julebord/

The problem with the Norwegian julebord tradition is that it is not only used for eating nice Christmas food, but it’s also just as common to use it as an excuse to get very drunk.

Coworkers getting very drunk together also tends to be a bad idea in general, and the julebord tradition is known to have many controversies. Not only is it the most likely place for someone to hook up with a coworker, but it’s also known to be a breeding ground for workplace conflicts and sexual harassment.

My list of places to never work is growing.

I've been to a couple bars with coworkers, but it was fine since we all needed to drive home. I guess that's one positive of car culture here...

Places I'll never work: Seedy bars, high-stress business jobs, Norway, parachute testing companies...
