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 😳

Yes it was to you, sounds like a wild but fun night :) good luck for the leaving do

Doesitgoto11 · 24/07/2017 19:54

@StealthPolarBear I rather think I'm going to need it Confused my neighbours must think I'm running a knocking shop Blush although to be fair I have a lot of male friends who are all helping with some of the more physical jobs involved for the move (I'm not just leaving my job I'm moving a few hundred miles away)

Oh well, gotta have fun while we can life is too short for regrets!

Just to add my anecdote. A few years ago I was working with the public. I went out with my friend and was absolutely wasted (standard night back then, I'm VERY different nowGrin).
Went into work on Monday acting ever the professional. A regular customer came in:
Him "did you have a good night Saturday?"
Me "er..."
Him "I saw you in XXX remember?"
Me: "oh fuck"
Him, quietly now: "look I'm not being funny but do you seriously not remember? You pulled me"
Me: ....oh shit that was YOU?

Blush Blush Blush

I was an absolute bellend/slut/mess back then. I am so glad I've changed!

A colleague, (not me, honest), got really drunk at our Christmas party. Our boss was making a speech and he kept calling out "wanker!". Then started being sick on the floor, we got him an ice bucket to puke into.

Doesitgoto11 · 29/07/2017 22:27

@StealthPolarBear just to let you know my normal service was maintained on Thursday 😂 however the guys I was out with were even more hanging than me the following day, I was up at 6:30 full of beans Smile

Wow at the boasting of who behaved worst. You all sound like the slobs decorating the town centres with vomit and piss during the early hours. It's so appallingly brainless and disgusting. I know it's not what you want to hear but it's the truth. You should be ashamed and you have some making up to do. And you are clearly too immature to drink alcohol.

Piesy · 29/07/2017 22:44

This thread is why I miss living in U.K. so very much Grin

Doesitgoto11 · 29/07/2017 22:55

Oh fuck off seekingsugar and take your judgy pants with you whilst you clutch your pearls.

I'm going to have another Wine

SeekingSugar · 30/07/2017 03:12

Doesitgo gosh you're all class aren't you. I especially like the way you so quickly identified yourself as one of the tragic and brainless who are so lacking in maturity, self control and dignity to the extent they fill the streets with bodily waste. You must feel so proud.

Shat in his special Scottish socks made me cry with laughter.

My very first works night out took me months to live down. I was just turned 19. Had never touched a drop of alcohol until that point (drunk parents put me off), but decided to have a glass of wine with the meal. There was around 45 guys in our place and 6 women so the lads kept buying round after round after round. I was told (although I should have checked) that the wine was very low alcohol content... I was fine while I was sitting down and chatting away fine then I stood up to dance and it all went pear shaped. Apparently I went from mousy quiet (I used to go bright red even when people just spoke to me) to the life and soul of the party singing and dancing. I snogged the mechanic I had a crush on in the middle of the dance floor and got louder and lairier until my lovely boss took me home.

His wife looked after me, but come Monday rumour was I'd snogged mechanic then fucked the boss. Not a single soul believed me/us and a few people were quite horrible as a result until I actually cried one day and people believed me (one woman was fucking awful about it - you'd have thought I'd shagged the whole garage on the dancefloor). Every night out after that I had the absolute piss ripped out of me, but I was tee-total for 6 years so didn't do anything embarassing until my leaving do when I slipped on a wet marble floor and flashed my knickers when I fell, stone cold sober!

My works do was a booze cruise.

We went to the pub first which was my first mistake.

I threw a drink over a customer and remember lying at the front of the boat in between my bosses legs in a weird backwards row row your boat kinda way.
Made it very obvious I disliked a colleague too.

Threw up in a bush on the way home

Got fired on Monday by big boss. Not good - learned my lesson the hard way tho! It was one of my first jobs and I've never got drunk at a works do since!

QODRestYeMerryGentlemen · 30/07/2017 06:48

Thrrr may or may not have been an incident where I lunged at our CEO and demanded a kiss

Ferfukzsake · 30/07/2017 08:07

in terms of having the 'fear' after a works night out; way back in the day, when I was very lary (don't read any more Seeking, you may faint into you Daily Mail...), my even more lary workmate and i decided to partake of happy hour on a Tuesday evening, as you do. We had a big weekend ahead of us and I'd thoughtfully purchased a stash of sweeties from my gay male stripper flatmate (prob outed myself now...).

1 cocktail in and i suggested we test the quality of the sweets brand name mitsubishi, and they passed the quality test, so we necked a few more and I really can't remember the rest of the night out. However, we made it back to my flat somehow and decided to have a little smoke to make us sleepy, as we did have work the next day. while waiting for sleep to happen we decided to watch a film and found my then bf's porn stash so watched it in the interests of research/tips...

we woke up gms flatmate to ask if various scenes turned him on (no), and to rate bj techniques (another no, cos we were f'ing annoying him). gms flatmate decided the best thing to do would be to give us half a valium and get us to bed, as we still had work in the morning, so alarm set we finally got to sleep.

Woke up at 11am! both our phones had missed calls and messages from various people at work including our manager. The fear was off the scale. Called in separately denying we' d been together long the night before. Gave diffent reasons for our absence, basically sh*t ourselves. Decided the only way to sort it out would be to go and have hair of the dog and hatch a plan Hmm.

Luckily my ex worked with us and kept calling me to update me on what was going on at work (being management and in the know...) It was by far the worst 'fear' I've ever had in my life.

Next day both separately hauled in to managers office. Stuck to our stories and luckily didn't even get official warnings. I still feel a bit sick when I remember it though...

I am very much reformed Smile

FindoGask · 30/07/2017 08:16

Mitsubishis! There's a blast from the past.

Ferfukzsake · 30/07/2017 08:21

ahh yes Findo, back in the day when quality was better all round...

Mareska · 27/10/2019 04:02

I know this thread is old news now but I’m so pleased to have found it. I’m after making a complete tit out of myself at a works party, reading these tales have helped enormously.

Lewy22 · 08/12/2019 17:00

Tvstar · 08/12/2019 17:17

I am with aquamarine. I would certainly judge anyone behaving like that, especially at a works do.

Pugmumm · 30/10/2021 17:51

Any chance we could bring this zombie thread back alive? Sad

First work night out last night in.... a year for me!!

Luckily no poo or wee involved for me .... but dispersed into the loo for an hour, no one knew where I was- being sick. Luckily not in front of anyone. Apparently everyone worried about me Sad mortified.....

Thing is, I didn't drink a lot, just very stupidly on an empty stomach. Xmas do I will not be drinking Grin

PyjamaFan · 30/10/2021 18:04

Don't worry about it, we've all been there!

Pugmumm · 30/10/2021 18:08

@ButtMuncher

I've always been reasonably well behaved but a colleague at one boat party got so drunk he threw up over the buffet and ended up shitting himself and all over the curtains of the (one and only) toilet on the boat.

He was given a written warning and we suspect that's why we're no longer allowed our annual boat parties Grin

Jesus Confused that one has made me feel so much better. Poor guy....
Pugmumm · 30/10/2021 18:09

@PyjamaFan thank you... keep trying to tell myself that. Luckily I don't think I 'showed' it I was told. One minute I was fine and next minute I was gone (to the loo) and then made a swift exit out when DP picked me up very luckily Sad

TableFlowerss · 30/10/2021 18:44

Has this thread been resurrected for Halloween?

I make a tug of myself every weekend after a few gins. I think I’m hilarious, talk shite on the work group chat then wake up the next morning and cringe to high heaven….

I daren’t go on staff nights out, Jesus wept, I’d be handed my p45 as they were putting me in the taxi. I hate drink…..
