I am slowly learning that in BCF certain months are synonymous with certain events. For example, February is the month we go on a staff retreat, June is the month we have a Trivia night and November is when we have our Christmas party.
September is the month for September Shindig. I obviously have not been round for one of these events before (being a fairly new recruit to BCF) but apparently September Shindig is THE social event on the BCF (incorporating ABC) calendar. It's black tie and down in one of those warehouse event centres on the Yarra. (Mmmmm while we eat and dance we can inhale the stench of the Yarra).
My big concern about September Shindig is (I found out today) that we are meant to take our partners so it can be a bit of a social meet and greet to show we have a life outside the office. My problem, of course, is that I have no life outside the office, let alone any kind of partner resembling person in my life that I could convince to accompany me on the promise of a free steak and beer. I am now faced with the delimna every modern professional woman faces at some point: "Is it ok to pay someone to be my date at a work function so I don't look like a total loser AGAIN?"
I think it is important to intervene here and say that I don't think I am a totally repulsive leper and some people have on occasion said that they find me attractive. I think the issue is not that I am ugly but that I am uber busy and don't actually have time to meet anyone outside work. Unless someone happens to be in my kitchen when I get home or even better in my bed then the chances of me meeting them is absolutely zero.
So ladies and gents of the modern legal world, I need some educating in the way of these BCF functions, do I go solo or recruit (or pay for) a lovely handbag to go with my beautiful Marc Jacobs dress?
