A funny thing happened at work today. I am sure that this has actually happened to a lot of you before. The classic fart in the lift. I work in a small team, of young guys, in a big company. Today myself, and two of the guys I work with, where off on our merry way to the Christmas lunch, at the restaurant in the building.
On our way down we where joined in the lift by a very senior looking guy, who did as all people when entering a lift, turned to face the doors. My colleagues where behind him and I was standing facing him on the side of the lift at 90 degrees to the doors but in his peripheral vision.
As just after the doors closed there was the sound of a monster fart. One of those ones you unleash at home when a) nobody else is around or b) you are trying to impress your mates. I though it was one of the guys in my team and I packed out laughing like some punk smoking pot for the first time. Its not all that funny I know but when you job gets as boring as mine can... well every thing starts to become funny. So While to friends sit in the back of the lift suppressing there own laughter while trying to tell me that it was the big wig in the front.
Now it was my turn to feel embarrassed. Acting like a school kid at the company HQ. I felt really embarrassed due to my unprofessional behaviour and for hurting his feelings or some shit. Just because it was some big-suit guy and not my buddy. Who by the way was just standing there apparently emotionless, the whole time this little scene was going on. I couldn't believe how serious I was taking it, I still cant. "Career minded twat" comes screaming from one of the two subconscious's I seem to have.
Any way the whole thing became funnier as one the guy who I originally blamed spent the next half hour of lunch bitching under his breath in his Spanish/English about what a bastard the guy was because he didn't apologise to us. Which was almost funnier than the incident its self.

that old guy is nails. how can you bust a fart out like that in public and not at the very least crack a smirk. Especially when other people laugh about it, i would have lost it.
