That Was Awkward

Our office had a big board meeting this week and they decided to try something new. There was a snack filled meet and greet for the office and the board members. I talked to 3 of them and earned my fruit and cheese.

Leaving to walk back to the office I stopped to use the bathroom on the way to the elevator. I didn't realize I picked wrong until I heard someone else come in and not go for the stall. The way the bathroom was laid out blocked the urinals from view when you first come in and I didn't turn around.

Once I realized what was happening, I opted for hiding in the stall rather than explain to someone who was probably my coworker what happened. Then I heard another voice come in and the two men chat a bit.

Not only were both of them men I work with, one of them is pretty important. Another important note is that this totally invalidates the whole 'men don't talk in the bathroom' thing. You won't make a new friend but it's not a complete library.

I was stuck hiding in the small bathroom until both men had not only left the bathroom but left the immediate vicinity. The door was close enough to the elevator that I had no interest in getting busted. I could hear one of them chatting with someone near the else near the elevator. It's remarkable how small those stalls become when you're trapped.

By the time I came out there was only one person at the elevator who was fortunately not one of them men in there. If he noticed where I came from, he didn't say anything.

This is one of those awkward moments that is funny within 5 minutes of happening. I think this is hilarious and will happily tell it to friends. If anyone dare mention it to anyone I work with though, I'll shank you.
