It's important to take ownership of your mistakes — even in the most embarrassing situations. The wife of a coworker failed to do so when she flooded this couple's bathroom when she tried to flush a feminine hygiene product, and the resulting altercation created a growing rift between the two parties.
We've all been there: You're the guest at someone's house, and — after taking care of your business — you go to flush. Except, the contents of the bowl don't disappear like they're supposed to — instead, the water begins to rise. You panic and search franticly around the room for a plunger as the water (still rising) begins to reach critical levels — threatening now to spill over onto the floor. You say a silent prayer — contemplate the name you'll take when you enter Witness Protection — and wait for a miracle to occur.
At this point, one of two things happens: The toilet overflows, or the water stops just below the rim. Whatever the result — your actions now decide the content of your character. Do you fess up? Or do you hope that you can escape, leaving the perpetrator forever a mystery?
The coworker's wife chose the latter, and it backfired when the culprit was easily deduced. Now she's so embarrassed she's playing victim to try and retain a little sense of dignity. That's my take, anyways.
