I hope I don't puke...

At our company Christmas party later tonight, I'm sure our CEO will say something about how we're now allowed to say Merry Christmas.

(Where's that darn puking emoticon when you need it!)

I simply don't respond and change the subject. Strength to you. If you're especially bold, you could say "cheers!".

To find it, click the three dots ... at the bottom of the first page of smilies.

I hope you don't puke at the party, but maybe it would drive home the point.

How do such people rise to power in a business? It's right up there with saying it's illegal to pray in a school, we have to pay a "death tax" when we croak, and the jury is still out on climate change.

Set him up. Hang mistletoe above his office door and wait for him to hang himself (assuming it's a man).
