Disgraced myself on a work night out

[ethanrayne]

Can anyone share their tales of similar drunken foolishness to make me feel better???

I can't remember most of details but according to a co worker vomiting and falling asleep in bar were involved 😳

At our staff Christmas party a few years ago it was a free bar and one of the women got so drunk she made a very public pass at her married boss (including grabbing his crotch). He didn't reciprocate and tried to get her friends to take her home.
She was then sick in the corner (it was in our office, in a function space) and the MD decided to help her outside. She told him to fuck off and tried to punch him.
She was sacked, unsurprisingly, poor woman. Imagine that hangover!

I REALLY wouldn't worry.....anyone who passes judgement on something like this isn't worth worrying about....most of us have been there....my last outing I fell into the the massive ice bucket thing......best thing is to laugh it off....if some of the people love to do a post mortem get a whiff of your embarrassement, they will never let it go. Worse things happen...don't fret x

Where do I start 😂 You have nothing st all to worry about honestly now . I think nearly everyone wales up the next morning thinking shit what have I done or said . Exactly how I'm feeling today after a family wedding last night 😂 I was so drunk but apart from having a big mouth just saying a little bit too much about my love life I think I done pretty good / for once . There have been times where I've honestly wanted to emigrate the next day if done some bad things lol . Even deactivate my fb and hide out in the house with my phone off be Auden I'm scared my friends are going to put photos up or say what I've done or said 😂 Like my mother always tells me next weekend it will be someone else who people are taking about . Christ in a works party about 4 years ago I got carried away on a night club started stripping off on stage and then got thrown out by the bouncers 😂 Then decided I fancied the lesbian and work and was with her all night !!!!! Kissing the lot ! Now I don't like women in that way when im sober but you can imagine her how long I was the main gossip in work for 😂 Order some food and put a funny film on that's what's im doing tonight xxxx

lol we have all been there I fell of the chair at a Christmas party and the most annoying thing was I wasn't even drinking that night and I think I still get reminded 2 years on , always by people who just want to pick a fight

My friend was staying in a cottage with work friends. She was up till the early hours & being worse for wear she went to bed naked. She got up around 9ish for the loo. Some of the others were up. She walked through the living room & squared behind the door ready to have a wee 😂😂😂
Someone stopped her & guided her to the toilet & put her back in bed. 😬😬
Best thing was - she was their boss 😂😂

Pretty sure I've done something stupid/ inappropriate at almost every works party I've been to. I get nervous, drink too much and end up slaughtered.

Front it out on Monday, almost everyone else will have just enjoyed the fact that it wasn't them (this time), laugh at the jokes and say it was a brilliant night as you cringe inside, most people have been in the same position!

Depending where you work, I think this isn't necessarily good advice. For every boss who thinks it's harmless fun, there will be another who regards it as a lack of judgement. If the latter, they may be more sympathetic if they think you are embarrassed and it's out of character

My boss was invited to work drinks in the agency bar BEFORE he started. He got very drunk and was so abusive to everyone that he got a written warning on his HR record the day he started work.

Drunk at a leaving do in the middle of the day, sent home in a cab which I insisted I had money for. Threw up in cab. Got to station, had no money, couldn't work cash machine (too drunk!) so just had to leave my business card for the cab driver, so he could return for the cash and a huge apology on Monday! 😱

Oh please don't stress over it.. most if not all of us have been there!! And tbf, if that's all you did- that's nothing, you can breeze through this!! My first works do out, a themed beach party, I made my then boss scramble on his hands and knees for a rubber chicken he'd thrown in to the dance floor..and I took his ray ban sun glasses and promptly lost them.. I laughed as my very camp gay director grabbed my boobs and pretty much encouraged him oh and another works do.. I danced on the tables and played dare game.. dirty dancing with my gay camp lovely director.. who also tried to kiss me.. that I was dying going back to work believe me!!!

Make a joke out if it all on Monday... tell everyone they are a terrible influence (Joke).. and be thankful no one has photo or video proof!! Let us know how it goes!! But pls don't stress, everyone will be the same!!!

Learn from it. And be thankful at least it wasn't the Christmas party.

Also do an honest inventory of your relationship with alcohol.

Sorry to sound like your grandmother! x

Go in tomorrow and just be pleasant and professional - take each day as it comes . I have done worse than you and survived ( not that I am proud of it ) but the thing you forget is that other people are also under the influence and often their memories arent too good either. I send you 🌺 and wish Mumsnet had been around when I was a big fool !!

I went to a works do once and I could see things were getting a bit sketchy so I made sure I only had a couple. To sum up, we had:

1, Fisticuffs over someone looking askance at someone's girlfriend (he got a warning but still worked there a year or two later when I left.)

1. Multiple cat fights over random trivial slights

3.a colleague getting so drunk he passed out and had to be rescued by the VP. He was such a sweet guy that no one really was too fussed

1. A couple having sex in a hedge right outside the door of the venue. No one said anything about it in an official capacity which goes to show that if you're going to get pissed and disgrace yourself, you need to do something so shocking that no one even wants to talk about it to discipline you.

One of our Scottish bosses got hammered at a works black tie do, he was in full highland dress and sharted down the back of his legs, into his special Scottish socks

This.
Nothing else matters.

special Scottish socks

Aye, he kilt his hose....😂

I worked at an outdoor centre when I was 21 (kind of like PGL but much smaller). It was residential and I had the most appalling crush on one of my colleagues, which I then preceded to tell all our other workmates about before very blatantly eyeing him up as we were walking to a cashpoint. Can't imagine why he deleted me off Facebook the minute the season was over.

Worst was when we'd been on the homemade wines in a local pub (small seaside town you see). One of my workmates used to wind me up something chronic and he went one comment too far so I threw my chapstick at him. I intended this to sail over his head but being drunk it landed squarely under his eye, leaving a lovely bruise. Fantastic look for teaching children! Tbf his "fiancee" (that lasted about 5 minutes) said he was being a twat and that I shouldn't worry about it! Never lived it down the whole season though.

On a colleagues leaving do I kept flicking my boss' large ears saying 'I've always wanted to do that

Yes it does...to most. Clearly you are a dryshite. Lots of them around too. Snore!!!!

Those socks!
I have heard that police parties / dos are the worst from my neighbour whose friend was high up in the met or something! Third hand, but it doesnt surprise me! Lol

I'll start by saying that I am a fairly quiet and introverted character, until the free work bar opens!!!

So at the last Christmas party I got really, really drunk. Not only did I manage to insult 3 members of my team (and follow up by talking loudly about how people need to lighten up - cringe), I also had a horrific moment which didn't come to light until 3 months later...

I was on the dance floor with my boss and a few other colleagues busting some shapes. Feeling merry I called my boss over to point out a colleagues "awful dad dancing" and laughed my head off about it. My boss smiles but soon walked away.

3 months later it turns out that my boss and the "dad dancer" had been having a year long affair and were now officially a couple!!! It makes me grimace inside every time I think about it!!

I'd fancied my boss for ages and on a works night out we all got very pissed, and it turned out he fancied me too. We were snogging each other into the wee hours, and ended up going back to mine to dtd.

None of that would have been too much of a problem, necessarily, we were both single at the time. However, the awarkwardness came from the fact that it transpired that he had a micro penis. And I mean, micro. Like, I wasn't sure if it was his manhood or his belly button I was looking at.

Not in a hurry to repeat the experience, work became terribly awkward after that. He decided to try and make me jealous by flirting with another girl all the time, and everyone else (including some really bitchy girls I worked with) assumed that it was him who had blown me out, and would try to rub it in my face that he was flirting with the other girl. I obviously didn't want to broadcast the truth of the situation, so I got a new job 😂

I'd only had one glass but at a work Xmas party I leaned too close to the pudding, lit it with a match and burned my eyebrows off...

You'll suffer some leg pulling but it will be OK. I think it's worse when men go ott on a works do were just meaner to each other! I think your story is a good argument for underage drinking though....gets nights like that out of your system before your old enough to care!!

A few years ago at Xmas party my exboss got smacked across the face by his PA after refusing to pay for his meal in her inebriated state, he reportedly punched her back. Ironically he didn't drink! Apparently they'd had some sort of an affair.
He got sacked & sued the company whilst she received a big payoff...

And I've heard worse!

My worst was to get sloshed & soaked with beer leaving me translucent up top... nobody said anything thank God!

Sorry OP, but I'm loving this thread
