I can't top that, obviously, but at one of my previous airlines, the day (day off) before I was to go to captain upgrade training I got a call from the puzzle palace while I was out to eat with my wife. Like a dumba55 I answered because it was the day before upgrade and I thought they were calling about training or changing my hotel, whatever.
Nope, it was screw-services calling to junior assign me. I told them that I had been drinking adult beverages (which was true) and they still made my say I was refusing the flight. I had to have a meeting with the chief pilot, even though I was illegal for the assignment.
If it ever happens again, I will make them say on a recoreded line that they are assigning this flight to a pilot who has declared I have been drinking adult beverages. Which, is actually what I said in the first place, on a recorded line...
