I'll be going to mine because I love Christmas and I love the people I work with. It will be fun. But even if I didn't enjoy my co-workers' company, I'd still go because it's the right thing to do.
By the way, I NEVER eat anything at these pot-luck affairs, because I don't trust other people to be as sanitary as me. I simply mingle and politely turn down the food. Since so many folks are on such wacky diets, nobody ever questions my lack of a plate very deeply.
This is all due to the influence of my wife, who is the single cleanest person on the planet. People who suffer from OCD hand-washing look at her and say, "Damn!"
