Had an all dayer on the Beaujolais Nouveau one time.
We were commissioning a new plant in France and there was a gang of us and our Gaffer...
Anyway TCALSS we were completely mullered, one of the guys climbed to the top of the brand new, brilliant white, distillation column (about 150 feet)and promptly threw up over the side, leaving a pink/red stain all down the side of it...
My boss always used to say "I don't care how bad you are, get your arse into work on time, I don't expect you to do FXXX all, but I will not tolerate hangover as an excuse for a sicky"
Ever since, when it comes to drinking and work my motto is "If you are willing to hoot with the owls, you've got to be prepared to soar with the eagles."
On reflection, I think this one should have gone on Patrick's ramblings thread!!!!!
