Out with the boss...

It's perfectly ok to do it and I've been a strong advocate of it. I don't drink but I certainly try and give good company when I'm there with them. It helps you understand you team better and goes a long way in building up the relationship with the team.

Hi diutay, Firstly congratulations on reaching 100 posts well done to you, you have worked very hard.

I guess it depends on the country's cultural aspects? Some cultures have high Power Distribution Item. examples would be asian countries where u would generally treat ur boss as a boss. western european countries have lower PDI and u can go out with any1 u want, be it prez or sb. Cant say sth about US though. OK, if u liked my answer choose me as a best response. it would make my day.
