Degen drinking at work last night and I puked a LOT. Will this affect my job?
Last night was a mess. I got caught up in the mood at work, drinking way too much, like way past my limit. Honestly, I don’t even remember exactly when things took that turn, but I know it was a blur of loud conversations, drinks in hand, and laughter that got too wild. And then it hit me hard. I ended up in the bathroom, just puking my guts out, like I haven’t since college, man. I feel embarrassed, beyond embarrassed, actually. 😭 The worst part was that it got onto my top and since it was white in colour, the puke was so visible on it. 💀
This morning, I woke up with the worst headache and that anxiety in my stomach, the kind that makes you wonder if you’ve just screwed up everything. I keep thinking about everyone who was there, watching, judging maybe, or laughing at me. And now I can’t help but worry: how will this affect me at work? Are people going to look at me differently? Will they even trust me the same way? I’m not sure, and that’s honestly terrifying.
I know people make mistakes, we all do, but I feel like this one hit different. I was there, in a professional setting, and I let my guard down. And the regret today is real. Now I just need to figure out what to do to own it, to make sure it doesn’t define me there, to prove that I’m more than just one messed-up night. I hope people can see that too.
Do you think I can do anything to redeem myself or am I being too hard on myself.

Naah I wouldn't ever forget if someone drank and puked

wait really? I would lmao

It's okay ma'am. don't worry about it. it happens. guys do a lot worse honestly.

I feel your pain.

Maybe avoid drinking that much.

Drinking and puking is okay. I am just glad that no one took advantage of you.

probably leave the country you'll feel better

Don't worry about it honestly.

It’s okay. People will talk about it for a while, maybe joke about it playfully but it shouldn’t be a long term problem. I have seen so many senior people (directors, VP) get super drunk at parties. People talk about it for a while and then they find something else to talk about only to remember about it on the next team party lol.
