Where should i go?

525 views. 2012-11-17 11:12 |Individual Classification:Job|

Just a monent ago, our boss asked us which place we 'd like to relex? she said we can choose to singing, or go to conghua (we must stay till tomorrow if we choose conghua, as there are many entertainment there, such singing, bbq, do sport , etc), unfornately, i need to attend my friend's wedding party, so that if they choose to conghua, i need to leave there before noon, also i would leave alone, it seems not good, in fact, i dont want to go there, as i do have other things to do on sunday, so i said that they make the decision, to me, i would rather go for a dinner or just singing nearby, in that case we can do what we wish on Sunday.
so i wont go if they choose conghua, even though it's not good in a team in the company.
I consider that it's much more important of my friends wedding, i wont miss it.

Well, it is often like that, when you free, they don't invite, then when you have appoinments, there are invitations to go far. You would spoil the fun if you don't join them and they may develop negative opinions about you. You are now in a catch 22 (no-win) situation.

Catch a 21 means win , Is that right?

Smart question and I almost couldn't answer that. In fact there is no opposite word for "catch 22".
The nearest opposite word is "win-win".

Catch 22 is a "no win" situation. Just like applying for a job which require related experience,
but they would not employ you so how can you get that experience.

Some words are quite useful.

friend's wedding is more important than the party in Conghua ; since your friends' wedding only happen in one time ; you can not miss the wedding , cause you can choose another time to visit the Conghua for fun at your free-time
