It was horrible. Smelled like someone killed a fat skunk with an egg stick. The two MDs in the room gave me the most evil stare I've ever seen...even worse than when I royally screwed up on a deal. Any help on what I should do to apologize? Thank goodness a couple analysts were there to laugh. For the record, I tried my best to hold it in, but it was either fart or accidentally shit myself.

Should have shat yourself and slapped your log on the table while simultaneously looking at your MD without breaking eye contact.
Shows great attention to detail, while being able to work efficiently and quickly under pressure.
I didn't know they would be as offended as they looked. I also just started in January.
the fact that you already royally screwed up a deal 6 months into the job, maybe you should go find a new job
10/10, would definitely read again
Troll post, but a good one.
Really am not joking. I know it does sound like I'm a troll, but I'm telling you guys the truth. I wrote up a formal apology email and sent it to everyone in attendance. Anything else I should do?
honestly this was the worst move you could have done. you should have apologized in person to your direct boss instead of this (or, better yet, just not done anything and bust your ass from now on). you just drew way too much attention to it. i guarantee that shit got fwded.
omg please post the email
Ask for a raise tomorrow, show you're ambitious and aren't afraid of obstacles.
LMAO! I just ruined my keyboard reading this
I love this site
This is cheap, but I'm immature and laughed. Solid troll post.
OK, I don't care if this was a troll post or not, but I laughed my ass off. +1SB, and I wish you the best of luck...
talk about shitposting
Why didn't you excuse yourself ?
Please post the apology email you wrote
seconded
Never Happened.
You bastard! I just busted out laughing while a meeting is going on 2 doors down. But so worth it. I have tears coming from my eyes right now.
7/10
This is 10/10. Read again and still laughed. That first sentence, and the title alone.
What a legend! I cried laughing so hard.
I vote Goldmansak as poster of the century.
Was the meeting about gas pipelines? If so, you get +1 for presentation.
This is the kind of shit that made me want to work in this industry.
Made my day
Good to hear. As a quick update, had another pipeline meeting since and everything seems back to normal. Thanks for all the support everyone.
Farting in Interview (Originally Posted: 08/09/2007)
how do you back yourself
hahahahaha...you tell them "i'm not as bad as the smell around here"
what if it smells good?
Just look at them with a straight face and say "that's disgusting". Try to act like it was your interviewer that farted even if you were the only other person in the room.
Terrible idea. Just take some Beano and hold it.
