So what if you had gas everyone does sometimes. It is super gross but completely true. If i were in your situation i would joke about it to lighten the mood. If you still feel awkward or uncomfortable at your work i would quit. Why would you want to spend all day at a place where you feel embarrassed?

Absolutely DO NOT QUIT!!!!!! I'll bet there wasn't a person in that room that hadn't had the same thing happen to them at some time or other...maybe in church, a meeting or some other place. If they were laughing, I'll bet it was because they remember being in your shoes. Anyway it is just a fact of the way the body functions and nothing to quit a job over. Next time you go to a meeting, simply laugh, and say something like "hopefully my tummy won't try to participate in the meeting this time". Also, make sure you eat enough to satisfy your tummy's hunger pangs, and if you can, sip a NON-carbonated beverage during the meeting.

Come on.. it may be embarrassing.. but do you think you're the only person who gets gas? I wonder how many of those people who where laughing have been in the same situation...
Everybody, just every single person in the world gets gas and farts. It's a normal function.
Just take it easy- If they see you're embarrassed, they'll probably make fun of you. That's human nature.
One trick that works is... laugh with them!!!!!! tell them that was really funny!!!! When they see what you're doing, they'll find no reason to laugh at you anymore. Ok? They'll lose interest. Believe me.

Are you an adult or a child? Listen, there are a few facts of life - here they go:
Everyone has stomachs that growl
Everyone farts
Everyone poops
Everyone burps
Everyone has burps with a bit of puke.
Everyone has wet farts
Everyone has to run through Walmart one time in their life because they have the trots
Everyone snores
Everyone snorts when they laugh
Everyone does something embarassing every day of their lives.
Dude, welcome to being human. Bodily functions, while embarassing, are all part of the wonder of it all. Don't quit your job because your stomach growled. It's not like you puked vodka in your boss' plate of lunch.

Hahaha...I'm so sorry. This is the best question ever. Everyone's stomach will do that sometimes, but I will tell you: people will get over it and just think it is hilarious. Don't quit; just make it a joke..."Well Bob's presentation was so boring, my stomach decided to put on a show." Corny, but people will laugh. Forget about it. At the next meeting, pop a Pepto tablet and don't worry about it.

As long as your stomach was just growling, just laugh along with them. Even if it wasn't just that, have some self esteem!
Besides, quitting your job is a TOTAL OVERREACTION! Even if you are the CEO of intel, you are still human. Even ask them, they'll just laugh!
Besides, stomach gas is so inevitable, it is hilarious.

Don't quit, everyone knows that you can't control the growling of your stomach. There is nothing to be embarassed about. Happens to everyone at one time or another.

I wouldn't worry about it You have nothing to prove to your co workers just remember everyone has gas a normal person passes gas 14 times a day and if it happens again I would just learn to use humor about it joke about it and join in there laughter.
