I was expecting something way more interesting than "I didn't want to go to a company golf event so I re-RSVP'd late with no".
Next time, can you please do something along the lines of "sexual escapades with co-worker on desk of direct manager" or something?
In all seriousness, maybe the golf teams had been set and you were on the same team as your boss. It's annoying as hell to be short-handed in stuff like that.
"Unpaid work events are for suckers" is for the real suckers. Two people could be equal at doing the same job, but the quiet guy who sits in the corner, does his 9-5 and goes home isn't going to see the same advancement as the guy who is visible, attends events, etc. You are a brand. You have to market yourself, and company / networking events are a big part of that.
