I've been living in Germany for a year now and in the job for 2 months. We went to the annual Frühlingsfest (think Oktoberfest but smaller) and the company were paying for the drinks, so naturally I drank a lot.
I'd eaten a huge meal before I went, as the last two times I've been have been on an empty stomach. Blackouts, broken phones and no memory of getting home whatsoever followed, so this time I planned ahead. This plan failed miserably.
When we decide to leave, we went on one of the many rides they have in the festival. Although my memory of this ride is a bit blurry, I think it was one where you sit in and it spins around really fast, sticking you to the seat. However, in my drunken state, I forgot to pull the thing to hold you in down, and ended up falling on to the floor and I'll tell you, it was no fun. I was sliding all over the place and trying to stand up to get back in to a seat, but currently lacked the motor functions, or any functions for that matter after drinking 6 litres of German beer, so I'd fall over again and go sliding across this huge wet floor. Not the best moment of my life by any means.
Although my memory of this isn't the best, I do remember sliding around getting soaking wet, as well as my co-workers helplessly looking on in horror and amusement. I'm now covered in cuts and bruises and I managed to lose my keys, which meant I had to sleep outside my front door until the next morning when the landlady could let me in.
I'm really looking forward to work tomorrow, but hopefully my coworkers (two of which were the owners son's I might add) would see the funny side. Here's to hoping🍻
