| Dec 28, 2016 at 4:30 | comment | added | Gray Sheep | @rath I emailed a positive "thank you, I will be there" on the spot. Only later I've thought that maybe they committed a mistake. They didn't react that mail. The problem is that asking about clarification had mean, that I question their precision, which had seem bad if it wasn't a mistake. I considered this more dangerous, as to visit the party semi-unwanted. I still don't know if it was a mistake or not, although now I think it is more probable that it was (they have another foreigner employee with the same family name as mine). | |

I'd suggest calling or emailing to verify that your invitation stands. I'm assuming you were invited by (snail/e)mail of course, rather than by phone. | |

"Invited" means you have a choice in the matter, someone has extended an invitation to attend the Christmas party. "Called" implies you have very little option in the matter, you have to attend at their will. | |
