That would never occur to me. It would be bizarre and awkward and just wouldn't make any sense. I'm not even sure people ever did that in real life anyway, it seems like something that only happened in old sitcoms.

Absolutely, NEVER!!!!!!

Do people still do that? I’ve seen that done on television. It never occurred to me that People actually invite their boss over in real life. I’d be a too uncomfortable.

Depends on where you are. It’s not common in the US but is still a common practice in other countries.
