    Phone in sick. Hire a row-boat. Go fishing with a six pack and kill hangover. Job's a goodun. Oh yeah, come home and clean vomit from downstair neighbour's windows.

    If he's puked, I'd imagine he'll feel fine. I never have any kind of a hangover after vomming.

    How can people do this before work? Why would you even entertain it? I did it ONCE in my early 20s. I got sent home as I arrived at work the next day obviously still pissed, and lost a day's pay.

    Never even been close to doing it again….. How old is this guy? If he's any more than about 23 I'd make sure he was still alive, chuck him in bed and let him suffer on his own…..

    PP, obviously only doing it the once has held you back in terms of career development.

    Learning to pretend to work effectively/blag your way through presentations/chair meetings etc with a stinking hangover is an essential business skill that anyone over 30 should have.

    I agree with PP, getting wrecked is something you (should) grow out of.
    Unless you subscribe to the pisshead culture of this country and think its a good thing. Personally, the most pathetic conversation I hear at work begins "Ooh, I was so paraletic last night…"
    But hey ho, each to their own an all that.

    Sounds like his problems are greater than a presentation.

    Unless he is early 20's then I guess we've all done it before!?

    Don't people in jobs like this have a predisposition to getting legless?

    Blaggers like this are why the country's industry is in such a mess.

    Sympathy from me: Zero!

    If you can 'do' your job wrecked or hungover then it's a job not worth doing 🙄

    You make it sound like only British people are ****.. and it's some kind of new thing that's causing a modern malaise.

    going back the OP, obviously the presentation isn't important, no business is to be gained by doing it well, the clients perception of the company via the piss-head is unimportant, no one else has put any effort into the project otherwise someone would have stopped the ****t getting so wasted and the guy will be a hero for winging it and 'we didn't get the contract, but never mind, we had fun, yee-haa ……' 😯
