Barfing at work ettiquette

[ThomasSoerensen]

Etiquette would be NOT to barf at work.... but on the assumption that if you are going to chunder anyway you could at least try a little decorum.......

I suggest running in a blind panic torwards the karsi with your hand held over your mouth with little spurts of bile and diced carrot randomly spraying onto peoples desks and laps as you pass........

My colleague / drinking buddy from years ago was on his student placement year.

On the afternoon of his last day, after a world-class lunchtime session, he suddenly awoke from his slumbers (at his desk) puked across his desk, keyboard, paperwork etc. then went back to sleep, head down in the chunky puddle.

The MD came in a few minutes later, woke up my mate, checked he would be coming back once he had finished his honours degree, patted him on the back and told him he could go home early, if he wanted.

Class acts, the pair of them.

Such was life in a software house in the 1980s.

You're not wrong!

I worked with a guy who used to keep a bottle of vodka, in his desk. He was very popular, and it was quite usual to see a little huddle in his cube, chain-smoking and sipping tepid Stolichnaya from plastic cups at 11am

Vomiting was the least of the issues, really.
