Glued myself to the floor on a carpet install

So I was putting down carpet in a living room yesterday. I knocked over a full bucket of glue and didn't notice. When I went to adjust the carpet, I sat right in the sticky mess. I was stuck to the floor for like ten minutes before my helper showed up. He had to cut the carpet around me to get me free.

Reminds me of a buddy who did something similar, but with vinyl flooring glue. He knelt in a fresh patch and was stuck there until his wife came home with cooking oil to loosen it. That was a LONG afternoon, and now he double-checks the floor before he moves.

My neighbor's kid got stuck with carpet adhesive.
