I was debating whether to tell this story because the idiot in the story is me, but if you can't laugh at yourself then who can you laugh at.
It all started when I found a unopened Dr. Pepper bottle in the trash. I was helping facilities do some work around the office site, and we had a big trash bucket. Well when we went to go throw away the trash this Dr. Pepper bottle was staring at me. I quickly grabbed it because it seemed to be unopened. Which it was.
I thought I had a great find there!! I asked the other guys if they had been the one to throw the Dr. Pepper away by accident. Everyone said no, and I thought I could see some jealousy on the peoples faces because I found a free Dr. Pepper. I didn't know if I wanted to drink it still because I of course found it in the dumpster.
So I took it back to my post after we finished and I just stared at it for hours. Thinking to myself if I should take a drink or not. I ended up opening it smelling the soda to see if maybe it had a weird smell. It smelled fine to me which made it even harder not to taste the dumpster Dr. Pepper.
So I am not going to lie. I took a drink of it. In fact I took a couple of drinks from it, but I started to get this weird feeling so I went ahead and threw the Dr. Pepper away. Little did I know the story did not end there. I ended up finding out why it was in the trash in the first place though.
It ended up being thrown away because housekeeping found it in the urinal that wouldn't flush, so let's call it lemonade was all over it. So the drink was OK, and everything else I put my mouth on, but yeah I drank a Dr. Pepper that was found in a urinal.





Puke...!!! My next question is simple. Why was a soft drink in a urinal?

I have never found out why. I don't think I want to know why either.

Ew! But buddy, you're not alone on that one. I like to 'save' stuff too, but from now on, I'm gonna leave it alone! No matter how perfect the condition is!!
