I still go from time to time, but have seen enough.
Go to the gala. Step out of your comfort zone and just do it. It would surprise everyone you work with. Sometimes breaking tradition is fun.

I used to always go but I just can't bring myself to do it. It seems so fake and egotistical. I have no need for that type of boost, I'm comfortable being me as I am...I'd rather an accolade coming from a client; a thank you for helping me, comment means more than a plaque with my name on it. In the last twenty years I've been to many, so I know what to expect from the night - Admin girls with too-small dresses on, wankers self-congratulating, people getting drunk, too-loud music, ego and hubris.
Pass.
OH!!! I have been there! ;)
Fish and chips and cuddles with Cleo were much better than the night would have been although I'm told the main course was passable.
