That moment the team is ready to pack up for the day and then someone utters the words “so where should we go for dinner?”... meanwhile you already had a nice solo dinner planned out for yourself. KMS

So follow thorough on your plans. We are all adults here, no one said you had to go to every dinner. It’s been on a standard on my teams that there are no team dinners on Monday; let people relax after a presumably long travel/work day.

On my last project I asked the team what they wanted and they said “one team dinner per month”. Otherwise it was on your own, or meet for dinner casually, no “expected” attendance
