I was in my first week at the last place i worked, and my insides were begging for a private place to let go of some gas.

We had a lunch area with picnic benches in the back of a very large building, so at lunch i felt safe in going out the front door and taking care of my problem. Soon i had relief! Unfortunately, i didn't know the smokers slipped out a side door behind me to finish thier break.

I will have to say that the laughter was done quietly, and the snickers for the next two weeks were kept to a minimum. but boy, was my face red!

I will confess that I had a similar experience. I was in an informal meeting in a small office with 3 managers of my company. I was speaking with great enthusiasm and one slipped out. Everyone was silent for at least 30 seconds and then one of them opened the door.
