At some point in your professional life, you are likely to do or act something considered awkward, unprofessional and utterly embarrassing. The humiliating workplace moments can be as minor as walking out of the office washroom with toilet paper stuck to your legs or as major as accidentally sending a personal email to the entire office. You've probably done a few of these things at work before,and it's something they never let you live down. Ever!
Embarrassing Situations Every Jobholder Can Totally Understand
#1 Farting Publicly In A Staff Meeting
It happens by accidentally of course. But letting rip openly at the workplace is the worst thing that might happen to someone. Even the silent ones are deadly.
#2 Advertising Where You've Been For The Last 2 Hours
When you forget to notice the toilet paper clinging on your shoe after hiding in the bathroom for a long period and stroll it out confidently. It could be worse. It could be dangling from the back of your pants.
#3 Using The Xerox Machine To Get A Few Laughs
When it's been a long, hectic day and you decide to do the old 'copy your face' trick on the Xerox machine, only to see the page come out just before yours is someone's ass. Gotcha!
#4 When You Accidentally Make Contact With Your Co-Workers Private Parts
It's easy to drift off when your work is boring. Sometimes instead of staring off into space, you look at the guy sitting next to your desk and get stuck in sexy hypnosis for two seconds and then you realize that 2 seconds have turned into 2 minutes when the guy notices and looks back to you.
#5 Getting To Work To Find Out You Wore Your Bedroom Slippers
Now how could this happen to you? You know you took your slippers off and took a shower, yet here you are, wearing your slippers instead of your dress shoes. Go with it and be proud, you stupid ass.
#6 When You Give A Speech And Your Zipper Is Undone
It's your time to shine. The worst thing you can do is to try and hide it before anyone notices it, because that just draws attention to the issue.
#7 Falling And Tripping Over The Invisible Bump In The Floor
You'll never live it down, so make it appear as though you meant to do that. When you fall down and you get confused between laughing and pretending as if nothing happened and cry in front of the whole staff. Later on at home, you realize your entire body is sore and bruised.
#8 Mistakenly Entering The Wrong Bathroom
You enter the men's room or the ladies room by mistake because you've really got to go. But then you realize you've made a big boo-boo and slowly back out, quietly letting the door close behind you. Red Faced!
#9 Ink Leaking All Over Your Face
When you chew your pen out of habit and someone points out the blue mark on your chin at the end of the day like around 4pm and you have been walking around like that the whole day. Great!
#10 Your Boss Is Confused When He Receives A Vulgar Message
You realize it right after hitting SEND. You were just texting the boss a simple message saying "Ducking out for a quick bite, let me know if you want anything." But your boss replies back with a thumbs up, and you read your text... "Fucking off for a dick bite, get me now if you want this thing." Damn you autocorrect!
#11 Hitting 'Reply All'
After getting an office-wide email you reply back with a saucy message to your close colleague slagging off your boss and then you realize that you clicked 'reply all' mistakenly. Cringe.
#12 Accidentally Mailing Personal Emails To The Entire Office
Unlike hitting reply all, this time you're emailing a close, personal friend some nitty gritty details while you're at the office and not allowed to be using your phones. But, the thing that was only personal to you ends up in everyone's inbox. You've got some 'splaining to do!
#13 Having A Dream That You Went To Work In Your PJs And The Realizing You're At Work
How could this happen? Blame it on the ice cream and pizza you had before going to bed, but this is one crazy dream until you finally notice people staring at you and your desk phone rings and "WTF!?" You're wearing your pajamas in the office!
