Still drunk at work

Athers · Post by **Athers** » Fri May 18, 2007 1:14 pm

It's gone 1pm, I'm at my desk where I arrived in disgrace just before 12. My director is in today and noticed the state I'm in (said I was on leave this morning - which I will log to be honest). He's mocking me in good spirits though.

I went on a quasi-stag do at a "Pound in pint glass" place last night and I'm almost certain I'm still pissed, whilst managing to have the worst beer voice ever so I sound like a Lancastrian V8 rumbling along. I'm still trying to work out how I spent 5 euros as well.

To make things worse my shower at home is broken and I stink. Gonna have a shower downstairs later when I'm able to stand up for more than 30 seconds.

Insert your "oh yes something similar happened to me also" stories below to make me feel better.

Went on a works weekend to Amsterdam years ago. My brother was working for us at the time.

Coming home on the plane (not really needed as we were all floating anyway), my boss (who was a prat) foolishly asked my brother what he thought of him as a boss. He told him, and became the first mile-high sacking I've ever heard of. My brother turned up for work Monday morning having forgotten all about it. Unfortunately, the boss hadn't and sent him packing. Some people have no sense of humour.

Many I time have I turned up to work still the worse for wear. It seriously affects my typing when I get the DT's sometimes

Coming in to work having walked the streets of Eindhoven for a night after PSV in the Group Stages this year (and having got on the first flight from Amsterdam) was quite fun. I was a mess.

I was just like you when I tried beer for the first time too.

A guy I used to work with could often be heard throwing up in the toilets on many a morning he used to have such bad hangovers.

My personal worst was when I used to work in Bolton. I was young and on the keg just about every night so handled the days-afters quite well. One Friday I was feeling worse for wear having been in the Ring o'bells in Little Lever drinking 20/20 the night before so I thought a trip to the chippy for my dinner would sort me out - The Ridgeway chip shop behind McDonalds if you're interested. Anyway, I'm walking up Bank Street to the chippy with my mate when I let out an almighty fart.

Or, should I say I thought it was a fart.

I was in the middle of town, and was in no mood for sharing my accident with my mate so I had to carry on walking to, then order my dinner and walk back from the chippy as if nothing was wrong before discretely discarding my under-crackers in the bin. Not a pleasant afternoon, I can assure you.

Still went out that night though.

Good skills mr A..
Thursday the ideal day to get mongered.... why waste a day off at the weekend with a hang over when you can sweat it out at work..

mildly hung over meself [even at this late stage] after a leavinh doo for a pal last night.. got on the wrong train [twice] 40 min journey..... took 3 hours... still a tad wobbly this morning.. largely remedied by an Olympic sized fry up..

I could just fancy a pint ...

I've sobered up now but still clutching a bottle of water that I am refilling about every 10 minutes. Curiously I'm only having a piss about every hour.

Now I have to decide whether I go to the pub after work or go home and watch the cricket highlights with a cup of tea.

Since it's such a nice day ......

I must be one of the fortunate few but no matter how much I drink I've never suffer from hangovers but the missus does and she can be a ratty cow the morning after!

Just wait, it will come to you to!

The key to defeating hangovers is practice and water. Whenever I go out for a night on the lash and end up having to go in early I am positive that I must be legally impaired. Just not enough time to get it all out.

My Weekend starts on Thursday night (Pool match), and carries on until Midnight Sunday.

Having been a Welder for more years than I care to remember, I can do it with my eyes closed and one arm behind my back (as I did on the Reebok), so I start work at 7am and sober up about dinner time.

I hope it doesn't change now I've been waiting 25 years for one!

I knew somebody on here had worked on the Reebok!

Where were you when this story broke?!
