What price to embarrass yourself?
Discussion
My days as a senior manager are long gone and now I watch on with surprise in my more mundane role at some of the outrageous things my young colleagues get up to.
The lads in our office have been challenging each other to ever-more bizarre and outrageous stunts in the last couple of months and we've had some daft, dangerous and disgusting "bets" proposed and, as yet, always carried out.
The latest defies belief really - one lad has been challenged to wet himself, in his suit, during next month's regional sales meeting. The offer so far is up to £500. He reckons if it gets to £750, he'll do it!!
Would you be tempted? At that, or any other price?

Nuff said. Would you be tempted? At that, or any other price?

You are Nev Wilshire AICMFP
Me? I'll do practically anything for a bit of money, unfortunately both Grandmothers are long gone now, so no sale there. Some of the stuff Young Mr Gryls presents leaves me questioning just what I'd do.
As for wetting myself during a presentation, and if there were no customers present, I wouldn't do it on purpose, accidents do happen though.
Seriously though Tim, which arena are you working in where the competition is so high that people feel they need to piss themselves in order to top-up their salary?

I wish had a tenth of Nev Wilshire's money! But yes, I see where you are coming from.Me? I'll do practically anything for a bit of money, unfortunately both Grandmothers are long gone now, so no sale there. Some of the stuff Young Mr Gryls presents leaves me questioning just what I'd do.

Our organisation (and I'm just a minnow on the outside of things) sells vending machine contracts, leases and all associated supplies. The lads concerned are the many sales reps.
The bet came about because apparently - and I wouldn't know as I don't go to such events - the Regional Sales Director has a real passion about no distractions during the meetings, ie no mobile phones ringing, no-one leaving the room, etc. somebody said, "I'd go out if I needed a pee"' hence the response of ""I bet you wouldn't ..." You can guess the rest.
The young bloke concerned is a bit of a 'chancer' - you'll know the type and I honestly wouldn't put it past him to actually do it.

Erm, one night I charged my mate one pint per text message from my phone... Parents were out-of-bounds, but I did have to apologise to a few people the morning after.

I kind of like the idea of this game (whilst hungover at his expense)
te of a mate. You can just claim he stole it, or switched it (if you've got the same phone, or an iPhone cos everyone's got iPhones) and all offensive text are brushed off as him being a tool.Mind, did cause some issues when asking my other mates ex lass if she was up for a three-some (without her ex) and she never explicitly said 'no'!
