Craziest time hanging out w co-workers?

What’s the craziest thing you’ve done with you co-workers? I’ll go first: At one of my past jobs, we were out on a weeklong company trip in Manhattan. We were budgeted about 25k for the trip for lodging, food, transportation, etc. Anyways, one of my co-workers ended up having connections to the The Plaza, so we were able to stay there essentially for free for a week. With lodging taken care of, we pretty much had free reign on what we wanted to do with the rest of the money. We ended up hiring 20k worth of strippers and cocaine, for 3 nights straight at our 25th floor room in The Plaza.

Whenever somebody mentions a name in some scandalous sounding story without prompting i always suspect its fiction. Who’s career are you trying to mess up?

No work trip has ever come close to the debauchery of the average band trip in college

My boss dragged us through a bunch of clubs in Shanghai and bought drinks all night. It was fun, though not like movie crazy

I had a house party in the 90s where everybody working for our small marketing firm in Santa Monica basically ended up fucking *someone* else from the office (or two, or three) the next day at work was very interesting

Surely it would be more *interesting* given the common male to female ratio in most of the presented here companies.

Comcast aethernet Feb 12, 2019

Here, maybe. Marketing firm in Santa Monica? Majority female. Some of the activity was indeed g/g.
