I run my Amazon Movie Reviews account on my bathroom breaks and didn’t want the ice to melt so I stupidly took a large soda with me. Set it on the ledge. Dropped the entire thing. Made a huge mess. Splashed all over guy next to me…  I instantly heard a group of guys at the sink burst out laughing when it happened. All I can think to myself is ‘Just gonna wait this one out…’

Pictures after the fact. A full, huge drink. While I waited it out I had to sit on tiptoes to keep my own shoes from the mess. I definitely waited it out a good 30 minutes. I was mortified. What if they were waiting outside of the restroom? What if someone was so curious that they hid covertly outside the restroom, wanting to identify me? I sheepishly made my way back to my desk. Hoping no one saw me exit the restroom. (Which they didn’t.)
