Bad behaviour

[bluntcrayon]

Oh... a Thursday and I am v merry... went to a free work drinks do and though I behaved (I think?!?) I talked to my dept' director and the head of the directorate... think I talked absolute nonsense to them both.. have nothing else to say but a pre-emptive ooww-ow-ow for tomorrow morning and have you ever shamed yourself in front of important work people??

[pmcc]

Drink water now!!!! and leave the alka-seltzer out for the morning:)

Oh dear, a lethal combination - work - free - drinks!! Don't worry, I've been there!! At least you may be safe in the knowledge that you provided some 'light entertainment' at an otherwise boring work party! (that's what I've always told myself anyway! :o :rolleyes: :D)

I agree with pmcc, lots of water now required!!

[poohsmate]

Not in front of important work related peeps, but probably every other person in the universe...:D:D ;love it though go in tomorrow as though
you own the world and they work form you.

and with a bit of luck, they were rather merry too, and cant remember it all clearly and think they had just reached the point where they didnt understand what anyone was talking about!

:o I got so drunk ONCE - it was so bad I've never done it again - that I fell over in front of the MD - my foot went under a lighting unit and I bought the unit crashing down

My skirt went over my head as I landed and I exposed my underwear (and it was very ummm, adult shall we say - not designed for public viewing :o) and just lay there giggling

:o



Just to add to my woe, I had damaged my ankle badly on the unit and found it swollen and badly bruised the next morning when I attempted to get up - and couldn't weight bear Spent 6 weeks on crutches so it was a daily reminder of my shame :o

I have never ever drunk at a work do since :o

snowyboy that is the funniest story! makes me feel better, at least i didn't do that! lol! feel a little tender today but have been worse, oh well!

I'm afraid to say that yes I've shamed myself on a few occassions. Not just with the drink either.

I've fallen backwards off a bar stool in my very first job, I fainted as I hadn't eaten all day as I was sooooo nervous and flashed my pants to the MD. When I came to I was totally mortified and nearly phoned in sick the next day. It didn't help that in the afternoon I tripped on some torn carpet and threw a cup of coffee over a very very important client.

Whilst drunk:

I've fallen asleep in a toilet cubicle only to be discovered 2 hours later by my manager (far too much red wine), they had to break the door down and I was quite glad that I hadn't gone in there for any particular reason and therefore was wearing my pants.... could have been really really embarassing!! :eek:

At one works do we had a mini fairground provided which had bumper cars and we all thought it was hillarious to constantly bump into our managers car, he came in to work with a neck collar on the next day as he had whiplash (oops).

I now don't drink!

say nothing, if anyone says anything look blank and then say "oh do you mean when I'd had a drink when I was on some medication and had a reaction to it?" and walk away before they can say anything else...

[notpoodle]

not with work people, no. problem is, i don't need to be drunk to be erm voicing my strong opinions about bosses etc :o

[Snowyboy]

just to add to my mortification stories :o

Jubilee gym in Covent Garden

I worked for a very famous TV studio

We had subsidised memebership

Lots of the Gladiators worked out there at the time (going back some years now)

Finished workout

Shower

Get dressed

Go and wander around Covent Garden

Buy new handbag

Go to Tesco Metro and get a sarnie

Wander back towards office, which is about 30 sec's from Trafalger Square so you get the idea this is one busy part of London

Friend grabs me as I am bout to walk into reception

I've got my skirt tucked in my knickers

BUT - this the WORST part

I had on 60 denier black thick tights but they slipped down

So I had a pair of (clean thankfully) white M&S plain boring pants over the TOP OF MY TIGHTS


I am now OCD about checking my skirt when I walk out of loo's now :o



My final one is nothing really but we had a big wig meeting at TV studios - I was asked to serve coffee to the movers and shakers in the industry (I think I was one of about 5 people that worked for the Company that did NOT want to be on TV so I was a sure fire bet to not faint or say something stupid in these situations)

The fashion at the time was jodphurs - not this time around, about 15 years ago

I had my brand new fashion joddies on, cream with faux dealer boots

As I walked into the room, my foot caught a cable and to save soaking our VIP's - the lot went down my brand new cream outfit

not as bad as my others but that is the worst of my public humiliation stories


I think :o However, the magnitude of my falling over drunk and my knicks in my tights makes up for quantity :o

[Trewsers]

This is why I am glad I don't work ina big company anymore! hehehehe, oh, I have had my moments in the past.......(for Blackadder fans - a bit like when Blackadder ends up head first in a puddle singing a song about Merlin the Magical something or another......)
Falling down juice eh?! Who needs that.....hehehehehe. Hope your head isn't too sore today.........

[Daisy_Roots]

Very funny stories.:D:D:D

A friend came around for a drink and chat one evening - said could she bring her friend who I hadnt met. Yes say I - no problem - more the merrier:)

A couple of bottles of plonk later we are all getting on famously - really liked her pal. General chit chat started about various people we both knew.

She mentioned the name of some young guy who lived in a village I used to live in. I then proceeded to say (probably rather slurred by now - never could take my drink:rolleyes:) What a jumped up, spoilt rich kid, ill mannered nerdy little mummy's boy he was. By now too p****d to notice my other friend frantically frowning at me and mouthing fish like words at me that I could not understand at all!!

Transpired that the said jumped up, spoilt rich kid, ill mannered nerdy little mummy's boy was the guy she was marrying 2 weeks later!!!:o

They didnt stay long after that:o:D

Never did get an invite to the wedding - some people huh?:D

I dont drink as I dont really like it and cannot hold my drink. I've had a few embarrassing moments to do with drink, not sure if I can post them on here as nobody will view me in the same light again LOL. One incident was when I went to Malta with a boyfriend and I slipped on the marble flooring and really hurt my knee, it was soooo painful and we had booked to go out on an evening excursion. To numb the pain I drunk so much wine, I blacked out for most of the evening, on the way back in the coach I got hold of the public announcement system and proceeded to tell dirty jokes. Everyone was laughing (thankfully). When I got back to the apartment and said to my boyfriend and some people we made friends with that I wanted to use the loo they told me I had already been......in my knickers!!!!
