Working hungover

[B19Kress 0]

So my uncle and I went out for a few barley pops last night and a few turned into just getting wrecked... Anyone else working the 9-5 out there today just dragging ass?

[cougarscaptain87 12]

the worst time for me was my first day working with my parents, had a meeting with the top executives at detroit edison energy and thought i was going to throw up the entire time, and was worried i would get a dui if i got pulled over on the way. not a good idea, last time i got wrecked before work.

I walked in this morning and the department secretary asked if I had been out drinking... I told her I wasn't "out" drinking. Ends up not wanting to go buy food is enough to drive one to drink most of a 24 pack for dinner on a Thursday.

I am absolutely dead, all I've done today is IM co workers and sit on the internet. 4 ibuprophen and 2 extra strength tylenol, caffeine and sugar are keeping me going. I halfway debated calling in sick, but whatever.

I feel your pain. I can't wait for my supervisor to walk in and ask how the designs for the sensor bracket are coming along.... all of my "look busy" skills will be tested today.

...38 minutes until lunch... come on Cheesesteak Friday!

Same Exact Thing! 51 minutes to lunch for me.. im thinking its gotta be a "Qdobe type" burrito day those seem to do the hangover trick as well

Right on cue. Walked in and said "just wanted to see how things are coming along. I commited us for initial designs next week, so you need to hammer out that material selection and get the layouts done ASAP."

God damn it. I should have called in sick.

Philly cheese steak... That's the only thing on my mind. The cafeteria in the mill makes a great one.

I litre of Mt. Dew, a little Gatorade and a bagel. Right as rain in no time.

[chippa13 1844]

The overnight bottle of gatorade is a must to being functional the next day.

[sabby47 2]

Energy drink and a Snickers bar work wonders.

well made it through lunch... went with subway... should be able to function the last 4 hours.. not that i need to I am second in the office this week :)

[Fire0nIce228 1]

Bottle of water in the shower, gatoraid on the way to work, and x2 on the plain un toasted bagel to get rid of the rest of it.

Turns out a bunch of the other engineers were all going to chinese for lunch. That was some good food. I'm leaving at 3, it's Friday, no one will care, and I've been working til 6 the last 3 days to get this project done.

Damn company with their zero alcohol tolerance, I was going to make it a 3 martini lunch until I remembered.

+1 for wishing for martini lunches

Funny this topic is posted today. We had our annual sales meeting banquet last night. All the top salesmen get bonuses and then take everyone out drinking. The whole office is hungover today. Both my bosses are no shows and everyone is dragging ass. Kinda funny since I've only worked here a few months I've never seen everyone like this before.

+1 to leaving at 3. I think I may do that myself.

Oh, and I also snagged a burrito for lunch (albeit Chipotle). Great hungover minds think alike!

Water, gatorade and pure oxygen at work.

Mt. Dew is the nectar of the Gods, and will not only cure a hangover, but I wouldnt be suprised if it cures AIDS, cancer, and ED. I used to drink a 12 pack a day, until I started having heart palpitations. Now at 39 I drink one a week......I look forward to it all week....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

And Mello Yellow and Diet Mt Dew are abominations and should be wiped from the face of the earth.

Doesn't Mountain Dew make your balls shrink?

Dude, I have humongeous balls. Maybe it makes them bigger. I used to hang brains all the time when on stage plaing in the band in college. I would lift up my guitar, flash the brains to a girl in the front....the look on their face was priceless. Too bad it doesnt cure baldness.

[RadioGaGa 162]

Bottle of Gatorade to end the night of drinking. I've had a few good nights and downed a 500 ml Gatorade...no headache the next day.

Just become unemployed like me, then you don't have to worry about it. Because you can't afford to get drunk. Wheeeee! :P

Mt Dew drinks more smoothly than any other soda for me but Vault has a much bigger impact on me.

Im old school...from before energy drinks. Ever notice the difference in taste from cans to 20oz bottles to 2 litres to...ugh...fountain?

Ice cold cans are the best.

Vault wasn't sold as an energy drink at first, it was a tweaked rebirth of surge. One of the reasons I like going to the islands so much is that the soda actually has sugar instead of the high fructose corn syrup. Huge difference in taste. Coke usually tastes best from the fountain at McDonalds. They use a little different formula than most places and it's just about perfect.

[chippa13 1844]

Agreed on Mountain Dew out of an ice cold can.

(in response to chadd's post)

you can usually find Mexican coke in glass bottles in grocery stores (or Hispanic markets). That uses cane sugar instead of HFCS, it's so much better! It was easy to find in Chicago and I was surprised to see it in the regular grocery store here in Milwaukee. If i am going to bother with a soda, it might as well have real sugar in it.
