Hosting a Company Christmas Party....need help
|
I've been asked to host our company Christmas party this weekend, as the cost of hiring a real host was too much.
The venue and the event has gone over budget.
There will be 100 people coming to the event and I have no script or opening lines/gags!
Any good jokes, opening lines or ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers people.

You are not witty Johnson.
Why bother with the internet at all?

I hope your client isn’t covering all your drinks Herr Thickle, you’ll bankrupt them. They’re only applying for UK dole via your services as it is.

Better slosh on the BLUE STRATOS, Neil.

There are several dollies in the typing pool. Hors d'ouevres.

You seem to be a bit of a Christmas party pro, Ratched.

I can see Neil getting excited over cheese-and-pineapple on cocktail sticks. Slapping the arse of the dolly in the typing pool. Swearing blind he'll resist the Cinzano Bianco, no matter how desperate be gets, but alas...

Free drink and food all night. It has an effect on working class people like catnip. I know because it still does it for me, albeit I can afford to pay for my own.
As for the hosting bit, I wouldn't worry. No-one will be in the slightest interested in what you have to say they will be gagging for free food and DRAANK. Thank them all for their professionalism/contribution/efforts and that's it.

Do people get ORDERED by their bosses to attend these things? If not I fail to understand why anybody would.

Wank into the punch bowl.
For added festive drama, chuckle "Ho! Ho! Ho!" and do so while guests are serving themselves from it.

That's not likely to be to my advantage.

smile a lot while welcoming everyone - thank everyone in the audience for being great all year and start clapping - they'll soon follow and you can walk off in a warm glow and enjoy yourself

Do your opening speech in Arabic, wearing a full-on dish-dash & back-pack combo.

My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, sorry I'm late, I just popped to the toilet. And while I was there, I saw some graffiti and it said 'I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.'
Straight away you've got them by the jaffas.

I got a divorce, lost a house and got a second marriage from the last Christmas party I organised. So NO I have no advice to give.

Don't do anything sitting down or you'll end up sitting next and opposite to a bore. So standing up and finger food.
Some tribute siger like Any Winhouse and some punch which tastes like soft fruit juice but will have everyone legless. Look up Miliary Punch
