Default You are a (different) 4th year apprentice

and have applied and got a job with a different firm.

In your excitement you write a text to your girlfriend telling her and
add a bit extra slagging off your current boss.

Due to alcohol or drugs you incorrectly send the text to the wrong person.

So did you send it to

a) your MD

b) your contracts manager

c) the MD's daughter (who is the secretary)

WTMW (again)

Don't suppose he managed all of the above?

(or possibly just c, but with added descriptions of what he wants to do
with her later :-)

Is the fact you put "your contracts manager" in this list a clue or
diversion?

None of those is a good option.
Just wondering how accurate the slagging off was.

I have known one post to Facebook that they were skiving from work
"visiting a relative in hospital" whilst at a theme park with photos.
Not smart as some of their Facebook friends still at work were less than
impressed... (there was a genuine relative seriously ill in hospital)

it's not uncommon for late night/early morning photos of them in
nightclubs on FB before phoning in sick the next day because of food
poisoning.

Alcohol is a poison, so they are not being untruthful.

Oh yes they are!

"Food poisoning" has a well-established meaning which doesn't cover
hangovers:

"food poisoning n. illness caused by the presence in food of harmful
bacteria or of toxic substances (as bacterial, fungal, or plant toxins,
chemical contaminants, etc.)"
