I got really drunk last night at the work Xmas party. I ended up going home with a member of senior leadership (would say I see them as a friend but this is the first time we’ve ever been out) we got in the taxi and I was fine up till that point. I was bladdered. I had to stop the taxi. Was sick out the taxi. Then again had to stop and do the same. Stumbled into my house. I am SO embarrassed that I behaved like that. They said it’s okay and texted me today and after I apologised telling me it was really no big deal.

im so embarrassed .

As someone who did exactly that on the first work night out post-Covid and did actually have to be carried into her house by her manager, I can confirm that nobody mentioned it after I made my apologies the following week. (They might still think about it, but nobody mentions it - and I cut waaaay back at work events after that!)

How old are you?! 😆If you were properly unconscious, you get a gold star!😄Also one for your manager. It's very hard for most people on their own to get an unconscious person out the back of a car. Ask most taxi drivers about that.

@PurpleAngelz I’m afraid I don’t remember much about it 😳but there was another colleague there to help her (who later just said “don’t worry about it, we’ve all been there”). And I was definitely old enough to know better!

Half a gold star then.😴Given how the world is now, are you sure you wern't spiked?

I wonder how many people who say "don't worry about it, we've all been there" actually have been?

im Leaving so it’s all good. I’ve learnt though. Im
moving to management so I need to behave

And when you get to senior management level you’ll be one of the one’s making sure the vomiting drunk person gets home. Pay it forward 🎄🍸

Buy him a small gift and thank him for making sure you got home safely.
