I'd feel incredibly akward turning up to a works party and there's models there who were basically being paid to pretend they want to talk to me.
It's just awful and sad.
- graphitezepp 9y agoThis would actually freak me out, I would probably need to leave immediately once I understood what was happening.
- MadSudaca 9y agowhy?
- olalonde 9y agoLike joining a soccer game and finding out half the other team was hired to let you score goals -- not a very stimulating experience if you ask me.
- MadSudaca 9y agoWhat would be the analogous of scoring goals in the context of a work party with coworkers? Also, I think it would be a bit exaggerated to freak out and leave. Although maybe I'm imagining the situation differently to how it was.
- olalonde 9y agoSince you didn't get the analogy: I don't find it enjoyable to converse with people who are paid to deceive me, especially if I find out about it after the fact. I wouldn't mind it as much if the models were clearly identified as such so that I could either avoid them or engage with them knowing full well what's going on. I am shocked you find this surprising.
- MadSudaca 9y agoMy bad, I didn't know they were meant to pass as guests! I imagined they would be clearly identified. I agree it's a very uncomfortable situation.
- ringaroundthetx 9y agoThey arent there for you, they are there for the entertainment of the organizer because of their bubbly personality which only works because of their physical attraction. They will also be entertaining to the guests. Many models are equally as excited about your tech company and the tech sector. You might find a few of them more interesting than your coworkers.
