A coworker gave me some THC laced stuff at work without warning me. So I’m sitting at my desk, when all of a sudden I start panicking. I feel weird. Is my heart stopping? I can’t move my arms. I start yelling. Other coworkers come to my aid. I tell them I can’t move my arms, while waving them wildly. They tell me I need to go to the hospital. The coworkers who dosed me said he’d take me, and they had to wheel me out to his truck in my desk chair because I said my legs didn’t work either.
In the car, he told me I can’t say anything about what he gave me, or we’d both be in huge trouble. So, I freak out more. We get to the ER, and I just don’t say anything. He’s talking for me. In the room, they give me some Valium and I calm down. The nurse thinks we are a couple. He’s a 40 year old dude, I was a 23 year old dude. Too freaked out still to correct her.
Next day, go back to the office like nothing happened.
You should have probably gone to HR about that. Without an explanation, the behaviour reflects poorly on you for something your coworker did which was not only illegal, but extremely immoral. You do not give someone drugs without their knowledge or consent! Wtf! You know he only took you to the hospital to protect himself. I would not feel safe working in the same space as him.
Yeah, of course. I’m fully aware of all of that. That was over a dozen years ago, and that company didn’t even have an HR department. At least not in the States.
I actually stayed friends with that guy for years. Even after we both left that place. I just saw him a few months ago at my new company’s tech open house, it’s a surprisingly small industry.
He probably would have been fired for that, but you really had to try to be fired from that place. Some examples I can think of are:
- Threaten your boss with gun violence
- Have a drunken arm wrestling tournament in the shop after hours, then threatening the guy who beat you, and the president of the company with gang violence.
- Talk about fucking another employee so hard, sparks will come out of her vagina, to her fiance. Then grope somebody afterwards.
- My favorite, micro-dose LSD for productivity, then make up a flyer about a sacrifice to Cthulu in the break room and distribute it around the building.
Jesus H Christ. These are oddly specific and terrifying are these actual reasons people at your company got fired for?
They sure are! And despite all that, I loved that place until they were bought by a venture capital firm (ironically named DBAG). That’s when it went downhill.
I woke up (from a blackout) on the hood of a car. A car that was stopped at a red light and wasn’t the car my friends were driving. I guess I leapt out of the backseat and rolled around on their hood? Idk, I blacked out again then came-to again rolling through some wet grass. Blacked out again and woke up on a couch.
Turns out that humans can teleport.
Want more details? Me too. But I have no idea. It was more than two decades ago and I no longer drink.
Sometimes it’s better to not know and just say thank you.
I just posted two pictures of my boobs to a discord server of about 500 people from my city. We’ll see how I feel about that later. Atm they’re getting a good reception
Hey its me i live in your city
I was given drugs for a tooth extraction and while I do not remember anything about it after I was given the drugs, my friend who was with me did. I had gauze in my mouth and I wanted some fries really badly. I basically walked into the window like an NPC with bad AI and my friend was like, “Elaine don’t come in, I’ll get some for you!” while trying not to laugh because I was staring into the window with my hands on the glass and my eyes were wide open like I was on crack or something.
Then when she gave me the fries I walked over to a bench outside and I started furiously eating them in a way that looked “savage”, all while I had gauze in my mouth! 😂 Everyone was giving me weird looks or laughing. She called a taxi so we could go home and the first thing the driver said was "woah woah woah is she gonna throw up or?"and my friend told him “no she’s not drunk she’s had a tooth extraction and it’s the drugs”.
When I got home I passed out in bed and slept for like 20+ hours.
How did I eat fries with gauze in my mouth??
“Elaine don’t come in, I’ll get some for you!”
Spiderman pointing at spiderman meme lol
Brenda.
You too?
See a doctor
I looked in the mirror and my diagnosis is devastatingly handsome.
Shit myself in the endagine maccas.
Go away scomo
Never forget.
And no, I’m not really that smug prick.
Instance checks out
Sometimes I will mix up their and there or worse your and you’re! Another time my phone Auto corrected whose to who’s and I was to lazy to fix it.
Stuck the landing. Well done.
I once used literally to mean figuratively
to lazy
Ummm…
Tried to go to work after taking benzos. Thought they were out my system but unfortunately not. Luckily a friend who worked there noticed I was fucked up and intercepted me at door. She sat me down on a park bench and called my partner who had to leave her work to give my dumbass a lift home.
This happened in 2019 but we still refer to it as “the incident”. Could have gone so wrong if my friends and partner were less supportive. I have no memory of the preceeding 5 days surrounding the incident. Apparently I was out at bars and spending money like a maniac, ruining family dinner parties, etc. Awful.
Benzos are the devil to me. They turn me into a zombie that is seeking to get more fucked up at every point. Friends don’t seem to experience this Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde thing I have.
Not exactly drunk or on drugs, but given nitrous oxide while having a cavity filled when I was younger I started to think I was drowning on my own saliva because I couldn’t swallow and they weren’t using the suction thing to clear it out. I started thrashing and flailing about, effectively slapping the dentist.
I fucking HATE when the dental assistant hasnt got their shit together. Yeah yeah i know its the 12th checkup and clean of the day and you are having post lunch/afternoon fatigue but stop going between letting me gargle saliva and dental tool water or giving the inside of my cheek a suction hickie.
I became unruly at a party. Pretty sure my drink was spiked. My girlfriend at the time dragged me off. Apparently I faceplanted in her apartment trying to take my shoes off while sitting on her bed. Woke up to a big carpet burn on my forehead. It hurt like hell and I was mortified.
One of my 30+ year old forever-alone friends always makes a complete clown of himself when he’s drunk and there’s women around. He thinks he’s funny and good singer but he’s not. Just extremely cringe to be around. On several occasions I have told him while sober that alcohol makes him a completely different person but he doesn’t seem to get the hint.
Video.
Nice try FBI
Drunk: brazenly hitting on a lesbian who was holding hands with her partner
High: one time at the dentist, they gave me anesthesia prior to oral surgery (remember to brush & floss, kids). I was high enough that I thought they were going to give me a boob job instead of a root canal. Because I was high as a kite, I couldn’t really move or communicate, so I just went in & out of consciousness. This was a dozen or so years ago, and I just remember being confused the rest of the day about it.
Did you get the boob job tho? Might help your chances with the lesbian next time.
Ha! Not sure how much that would have helped, since I’d have still looked like Peter Griffin albeit with perky boobs.
The first time I went to a 4/20 party, my friends and I got so high, when we played this trivia game that was on DIRECT TV, we kept trying to answer the commercials that played between the question and answer parts and thought we were just dumb as fuck when every answer was SUPER wrong.
Walked home.
But the house I went to wasn’t my home.
