John woke up after the annual office Christmas party with a pounding headache, and was unable to recall the events of the preceding evening. After a trip to the bathroom, he made his way downstairs to where his wife was.

"Louise," he moaned, "tell me what happened last night. Was it as bad as I think?"

"Even worse," she said. "You made a complete fool of yourself. You succeeded in antagonizing the entire board of directors and you insulted the president of the company, right to his face."

"He's a jerk," John said. "Somebody needs to pour that Christmas punch over his head."

"You did," came the reply. "And he fired you."

"Well, screw him." said John.

"I did. You're back at work on Monday."
