Registered 6 years agoI quite recently yawned whilst sitting at my desk and as my arms pinned back my manager was walking behind me at which point i grabbed something of hers that was deemed unsuitable to do at work (plus the fact she weighs about 20 stone)This was obviously very embarrasing so anyone else who wants to put some classic moments on here, please post away -

Registered 7 years agoHeh someone once was pressed up against me on the tube, and whilst rummaging around in her bag, grabbed my cock through the material. That was ... fun ...
At work? Either ripping a big hole in my trousers and enlisting a friend to go and buy me a new pair, sneezing on someone's hand or totally forgetting someone's name and calling them 'Ed' for several months.LB, you really are a massive geek.

Registered 6 years agoTurning up at work two days after I was supposed to have flown abroad on holiday.
The airport had refused my passport. So the next day I spent in Victoria getting a new one and the day after that I went into work to use their computers and look for a replacement flight.
Also note that not having a valid passport is a sackable offence at my work place. The boss of our department still teases me about it even after 2 years. -

Registered 8 years agoWhile giving a presentation to 30 odd people as a temp on some bollocks barcode scanning system I'd set up, many things went wrong, one however stands out...
The naff IT people wouldn't give me admin privileges to install what I needed so I set up my own machine, and physically brought it up to the meeting room and connected it to the projector (rather than using the approved domain account.
Anyway, 'twas all going okay, until I suddenly heard an all too familiar 'whooshing sound' and turned around to see the meant-to-uninstall-ages-ago-but-never-got-around-to-it Sky News desktop alert with:

Registered 7 years agoI once called a female colleague mum. Classic Freudian slip I guess.
Sorry to disappoint but thats it, I did feel embarrassed though.

Registered 11 years agoI really can't think of any truly embarassing things I've done, but I have had a few plonker moments... especially 3 years ago when I was working in a Chinese restaurant and having difficulty understanding some of their accents and the way they put English sentences together.
One colleague opened a tin of lychees and then opened a plastic container. "Put the lychees in the box", he said. So I picked up the tin and put it in the box. Apparently he meant for me to empty the tin into the box, not just put the tin in. To this day I don't know why he couldn't have done it himself... and every year when I go to their christmas parties the story comes up and everyone has a good laugh.Still stalking this place, old-school style (UID: 1053)

Registered 11 years agoI used to work with my mum, for transport reasons more than anything. I'm the intelligent guy who knows enough tricks to make people think I'm a genius at anything computer-based... she's, well, a bit dippy.Still stalking this place, old-school style (UID: 1053)

Getting caught with my cock in the bacon-slicer.
I've done several things at work that would have been embarassing if I'd have been caught... but I've not been caught yet so phew!
Having sex in the stationery cupboard about, oh... 8 years ago is probably best. -

I was responsible for page layouts and stuff like drawing complicated maps whilst she was responsible for proofing the end result and she never really had much idea of the technical limitations of equipment like computers and cheap printers hence lots of silly rows over what colour blue would a road actually be in the finished product. She was lovely really though.

'C U Next Tuesday'
I wrote that on the whiteboard for all the teachers and classroom/support assistants to read.
I didn't find it embarrassing though, funny if anything. -
