Re:Ask HN: Do you feel obligated to go to work happy hours? by valbaca on Friday March 03, 2017 @01:36PM (#13784983)
I go to less than half of happy hours or other team "outings."

That way I'm not cast as "anti-social" and I don't let people start to expect me to go to each one.

Useful excuses coughliescough

- a simple, "sorry, I already have plans."

- friend or family member in from out of town

- oh, I've got <some exercise class or hobby> tonight
