OMG. I SO embarrassed right now.
I just sent out an email to an ENTIRE account team and accidentally pasted part of a post that I had made here at the Planet into the body of the email. :blah:
I got a phone call from someone who was laughing so hard that I could barely understand her.
So what could I do? I contemplated packing up my desk and quitting, but instead, I sent out a "Mea Culpa" and laughed heartily at myself and told folks that "they better be glad that I wasnt reading an article on embarrassing medical conditions when I accidentally copied and pasted".
Things could have been worse, right? Pardon me while I sit here with a red face for the rest of the day.
In the meantime, could y'all make me feel better and post your most embarrassing stories????

Poor thing! In the interest of fully understanding your pain, care to share your pasted passage?

If it makes you feel any better, I once accidentally sent an email with this link:
http://www.holytaco.com/2008/08/04/church-signs-that-wont-make-you-go-to-church
to every member, deacon, reverend, administrator, etc. of my local church.
It was not good.
Sent the apology email, etc.
I can't tell you how carefully I check the address and "cc" when I answer emails now.

Ha!!!! Hugs!~
Glad to.
So one day I went to the tanning bed and it was unvelievably hot in there. When I got out, I just could not imagine putting my bra and panties back on and decided my loose sundress would suffice.
How wrong I was!
I walk out the door and a giant gust of wind blew my dress into my face.
Yes, there I was on the side walk pretty much naked.
I walked straight to my car and drove away.
I did not finish up the rest of my tanning package.

It went something like this:
"Team,
The XXXXXX job has finished on XXXXXXXXXX. The following errors were found on datagrid XXXXXXXXXX:
(and there was a list of grid errors, but RIGHT in the middle, it said:)
"I also know that Andrew wasnt trying to trigger anyone and started this thread from a place of analysis rather than from morbid laughter.
With that said, I have been fascinated with the process of life and death since I was a child. I was even taken to the school counselor when I was in the 4th grade because my teacher was having career day and was horrified when I told her I wanted to be a Funeral Director."
Color me blushy.

Oh, that's not bad at all! I was imagining much worse.
For myself, I get embarrassed whenever I do something that, if I were an onlooker watching me do it, I'd think I was a dumbass. Hence, I do a lot of stuff that embarrasses me. :)

Friday morning A after being on back to back to back calls for two hours.. I got aa gift basket order..
one order..
or so I thought when I started the call..
It turned into 22 gift basket orders all sent to different addresses..
BLINK...
So... I know that some of you might have a hard time beliving that I have a spelling problem... I know.. I know.. I hide it so well...
Anyway,
Because of this lil issue, I always over verify ANY word that I am not 120% sure of..
Some where between the 4th and 8th I stopped verifying the spelling of things... Then I started again..
So I complete the order, head off to break, come back to start the next set of gift baskets to be entered.. (I got smart and asked them to be emailed to me..)
In my inbox? THREE frantic emails from my customer...
First one..
PLEASE CALL... SPELLING ERRORS
Second one..
MASSIVE MISSPELLINGS, PLEASE CALL..
Third one..
PLEASE CONTACT ME RE: MISPELLINGS IN ORDER..
*BLUSH*
There is a list of five orders that have typos..
One or two on each order... Simple as forgetting to put a E on the word suite.. Things like that..
But not very professional looking..
I wanted to walk out of my job, ignore the emails, hide under my desk..
Instead I had to respond to my customer... ugh.. I hate eating crow...
I told her I was horrified and would contact my suppliers and get everything fixed..
So.. I had to eat crow with my suppliers and throw myself on their mercy...
Kay.. that taken care of.... I get down to entering the second grouping of gift baskets... Tripple checking everything before submitting it..
Well.. except leaving out a D in one clients last name..
Oh.. the second batch? Same client..Same supplier...
ya... RED faced.. I had to Mea Cupa a second time..
ugh....
Thank goodness peak is over...

Embarass myself? LOL, which time?
How about the crazy guy that filled two tube socks full of unshelled nuts and was swinging them as if wielding war hammers...in front of the courthouse...during lunch break...
and guess who got the call...
I parked the cruiser close enough and after seeing the first sock mangled and walnuts on the roadway, unhitched my mace, approaced
the crazy guy with a whole lotta courthouse onlookers (Judges, Bailiffs, Joe Citizen)
and commanded said Crazy Guy to :
"put your nuts on the hood"
...no compliance..
"I SAID, PUT YOUR NUTS ON THE HOOD"
:seconddoh::pointing:
...nowhere to hide.

OK! This is PRETTY DARNED FUNNY! Wish I had been there for that one! (I "thought" you were going to write, "he swang his sock of nuts at me and hit me in the face", or something like that.) This is way more funny!

This happened a lonnnnng time ago:
A co-worker and I were looking at pictures from one of her parties. She said "I never noticed that xxxxx has camel toes in this picture!"
At that time, I didn't know what the term camel toe meant :blink: When she told me, I said surprisingly, "OMG that does look like a camel toe!" Not realizing my voice carried throughout the office. :doh:
We were laughing hysterically at my stupidity for repeating it so loudly. Especially when other colleagues were looking over their partitions (cubicles) wide-eyed :huhlaugh:laughing their asses off at me.
It was both an embarrasing and funny moment.
I'll never forget that day, or that/those words!

We got a call in the office that one of our Home Delivered Meals volunteers was ill and could not make her deliveries. So, I hurried to pick up two coolers, one with hot food, one with cold.
I drove to the Senior apartments grabbed both coolers and walked to the door. A huge gust of wind came up and blew up my skirt. Keep in mind that I rarely wear panties (and have not since I was a teen). Up went my skirt at the same moment that the postman walked up behind me. OMG Let's just say I dropped the coolers and tried to control my skirts. I am sure the whole postal world got the story of the bare-bottomed delivery.

About 8 years ago when I was involved in a very hot and steamy love affair with someone long distance...I was at work and taking notes on my computer at a meeting. I was also checking my email regularly as she was sending me some super hot emails about what she wanted to do to me when she saw me in person.
Well, the meeting ended and I was asked to finish up the meeting minutes and print them up.
I typed the remaining minutes and pressed print.
What I printed was an x-rated email from my long distance lover. It began with spreading my legs wide open.
I went to the printer and nothing was there, which I thought was odd. Then I got a page, on the intercom, from a woman who works in the cash office of the bookstore. She is a dyke and I have known her for over 10 years.
When I walked in the office she had a piece of paper in her hand and she said, "I haven't read this hot of an email ever in my life! Sort of good I was the one at the printer and not your boss!" I turned bright red and grabbed the email and slowly backed out of the office. She used to pass me in the hall and just grin at me. It wasn't until last year she finally let it go.
I WILL always double check now what I printing....
Totally, understand your pain....

Y'all are making me HOWL with laughter here. :)
ONE of my embarrassing moments (Gods know I have many) involved me wrapping up a tech support call while proofreading an email I was sending to a partner.
Instead of saying, "Thank you for calling XXX. I'm glad I could help you today."
I said, "Thank you for calling XXX. I love you."
There was a pause.
Then she said, "Customer service has gotten a lot friendlier these days."
OMG! I explained what happened but she was very cool about it. So embarrassed because several co-workers heard it as well.
Boots13, you might enjoy the dispatch calls an ex took.
One was "Man down in woman's bush." The other was "Choking on Morningwood [which was a street]".
The first was responded to with the proper response but the driver's partner was overheard to say, "Do you think he wants to be interrupted." While the second was just met with much hilarity as they hauled off to the call.

I know you will all never beleive this but I have a tendancy to do some pretty stupid things.....quite regularly. When I started teaching K-5th grade kids that did not stopp but has increased dramatically:
I have recess duty with 4 other teachers....Dr. Thoreau hollers for the kids to: "Grab your balls its time to go in" other 4 teachers fall on ground in hysterics.....the next day having realized what I said was wrong I holler: 'Ok kids pick up your balls and hold them" other 4 teachers fall on gorund in hysterics........... Day 3.....Will everyone please grab some balls and line up...... other 4 teachers snicker ....Day 4............. "Keep your balls in your hands"........other 4 teachers blame me for needing to wear depends when they are on recess duty..... Day 5........ Ok everyone time to go in...dont forget your balls..............
That was the last day I had recess duty......
Teaching first grades how to do computer things.....They were not getting the right clcik so I decide; " Ok everyone raise your right hand..now i want everyone to show me their RIGHT CLICK finger".....principal walks by as all 30 second graders were giving me the finger (This is now what all the teachers in my school say when they are upset: Oh right click) and the two assistants went running out of the classroom giggling...
I have the kindergartners in my classroom for computer class...."bethany says.... Dr Thoreau...miles is playing with a worm"
I walk over to miles and tell him to give me the worm...he looks at me..I tell him to put the worm in my hand....he looks at me with major apprehension...
As I am repeating myself I realize what a WORM is..... :seeingstars: I say " go wash your hands".....and contemplate going in the teachers room and sticking my head in the gas oven.
luckily i keep my shoes clean and i use licorice flavored laces...since i continually have them in my mouth
My first job out of college was working as a receptionist for a small publishing company. One job requirement was answering the main phone line (duh), transferring LOTS of calls, and using the paging system several times per hour. On one particularly busy day, I had a number of phone calls come in at once. I remembering answering one call and putting them in the queue for paging. I picked up the paging line and answered the next phone call in a pleasant, professional voice: "Good afternoon this is [company name]. How may I help you?" Realizing my mistake, I quickly hung up the phone. The entire building had heard my page and was unusually silent. Soon I heard people start to burst into laughter. Including me! I think at this point, my boss came up front and let me take a break.

I have always wanted to be a singer. I have spent inordinate amounts of time in my car, home, and shower belting out tunes that would bring most folks to their knees. I have warbled loudly with Led Zeppelin, Mariah Carey, and Prince. I have brought myself to tears with the veracity of my voice! I have made my dog weep with joy! My singing! YES! The voice!
Imagine my surprise when my Brother wanted to go out on his 18th birthday and we ended up at a karaoke/strip club. YES, it was a combo. In Arkansas. Imagine that.
After several hours of drinking and watching naked women, people were starting to do karaoke. The urge in me was too great and the little voice in my head said, "Go ahead Angie! WOW the world with your pipes! Show the world that you have been hiding a magical voice under all of that red hair and freckles!"
I just KNEW it would be my big moment! I knew that people would be running up to me , crying, because I had brought such emotion with my song! I knew that record producers would slither out of the dark corners of the club demanding to sign me to recording contracts worth millions of dollars. I knew that my heart would SOAR with all of the love and adoration that people would bestow upon me because of the treasured beauty of my hidden talent! Why, even my own brother would be shocked and amazed by my voice! PEOPLE WOULD BOW DOWN AND WORSHIP ME AS THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALLLLLL TIME!
I picked a song I knew by heart since I was a little drunk. Well, I wasnt a LITTLE drunk, I was a LOT drunk. I was SO drunk that I had to steady myself on the mic stand when I went up to the front when my name was called.
I squared my feet and assumed what I just knew would be a "star-like" position. Why, I might even play air guitar and sway like AXL ROSE! Because I WAS FUCKING GREATNESS Y'ALL!
Needless to say, when the music started, I had picked the song "Jose Cuervo".
You know the one, an old country standard that would be easy on the pipes (woudlnt want to overwhelm folks rigth off the bat) and I had been singing it since I was 6 so I knew all the words by heart.
When the music started, I began singing.
People immediately covered their ears.
It was THAT BAD.
What came out of my mouth wasnt singing. It was some ancient, diseased, inhuman CATTERWALLING that probably could have been considered an instrument of torture. I immediately knew that something was wrong. My voice sounded MUCH MUCH different on the mic than it did in the car! I sounded like a dying cat. Like a person in great pain at the dentist office. Like a cow that had been run over and needing to be put out of its misery.
I looked out at the audience desperately for some comfort. Where was my brother? If I could just see his face, I could maybe find the notes and actually stay on tune?
Where was he, you ask? He was slunk down in the booth with his face covered in shame. He peaked up at me through splayed fingers and shook his head. It was THAT BAD.
To add great insult to injury, I was so drunk that I forgot to pay attention to the words on the screen and had been singing *what I thought* were the words for the entire song.
Instead of "Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine.....", I had been singing:
"HOMESICK WEREWOLF, YOU ARE A PASTY LIME."
In short, I want to tell you all that I was so embarrassed that I rarely do karaoke again without remembering that level of embarrassment. And YES, I still sing karaoke. Badly. And Often. Because really, sometimes you just gotta sing like nobody but you can hear it anyway.

Well, I was on my first date with a femme. Dinner was wonderful, we had desert, coffee, and went out to my truck to leave. As I was backing out of the parking spot, I went to look over my right shoulder. She had pulled the mirror down and was applying lipstick. (keep in mind, this shut my filter off immediately!) Then it happened....the words just came out of my mouth...."Oh good, you brought lipstick!" :bolt: I wanted to run!
I was praying to every single god known to human that I didn't say it out loud...that I somehow managed to retain that thought in my head. NOPE! She then turned to me, holding up her lipstick, with a big smile on her face, replied: "Did you want some?" She looked puzzled. I know I looked horrified that I would say something so stupid.
After that, all my friends started calling me Chandler. If you are a Friends fan at all, there was an episode where Jill Goodacher offered him gum in the vestibule, and he replied "gum would be perfection." He felt as stupid as I did for saying something so crazy stupid to a woman. :winky:
"Oh good, you brought lipstick" I have never lived that down and it was about 10 years ago! :pointing:
Edited to add: I asked her out again after that and got stood up.

My butch and I had just finished round one of a rather heated session..
I am in complete Domme mode and tell her not to move.. not even a toe...
I reach for my robe...It had been hanging over one of the posts on our four poster bed.. I pull it off the post and it slid down..
Or rather one of the arms slid down.. THE POST...
Yes, the bed is wearing my robe...
I look at the arm wearing post and ask my butch...
Ummm.. Can you get that for me? I can't reach that high...
Totaly broke the mood and gave me case of the giggles..
Gads... Color me Red...
Ha!!!! Hugs!~
Glad to.
So one day I went to the tanning bed and it was unvelievably hot in there. When I got out, I just could not imagine putting my bra and panties back on and decided my loose sundress would suffice.
How wrong I was!
I walk out the door and a giant gust of wind blew my dress into my face.
Yes, there I was on the side walk pretty much naked.
I walked straight to my car and drove away.
I did not finish up the rest of my tanning package.
Choking with laugher at this one rofl

OMG. I SO embarrassed right now.
I just sent out an email to an ENTIRE account team and accidentally pasted part of a post that I had made here at the Planet into the body of the email. :blah:
I got a phone call from someone who was laughing so hard that I could barely understand her.
So what could I do? I contemplated packing up my desk and quitting, but instead, I sent out a "Mea Culpa" and laughed heartily at myself and told folks that "they better be glad that I wasnt reading an article on embarrassing medical conditions when I accidentally copied and pasted".
Things could have been worse, right? Pardon me while I sit here with a red face for the rest of the day.
In the meantime, could y'all make me feel better and post your most embarrassing stories????
Yeah well when you wake up and send your daughter a text that was intended for the person you were sexting with the night before - THEN you can be embarrassed. Oh, the horror! I tried to make up a believable story. She didn't buy it. Instead she said, "OMG mom - that is just wrong - you totally made me drop the phone and I almost threw up!" THAT is embarrassing!

Fortunately, I have never done anything unseemly. I am however enjoying all of your misfortunes very much!
Prowler + Jack + Karaoke Machine = Priceless
I need to dig that picture out.
It could have been a response about nametags..... maybe a lengthy response to Diva regarding a nametag for one " Crotch Cuddler" :tongue:

By accident I posted an entire letter to a lover in an industry business forum. This was before Firefox and browser spell check so I typed everything in MS Word to spell check before posting. It was very intimate and detailed. I called her Daddy and made many butch-femme innuendos. Thankfully it was only there a few hours before I get a call from the board admin, who was a personal friend of mine, telling me he removed it. I was so embarrassed. Everyone was cool and no one said anything, thank goodness!

So, I was taking her out for dinner for the first time. I was still young and wearing a wallet chain. Not just a "wallet chain" but the Old School Industrial-Punk Wallet Chain. Nice, solid heavy links... what hung in a nice drape... down to my knee.
I held her chair out for her, tucking her in as she sat. I took my seat across from her, and we ordered. I was terribly nervous. I decided that I *needed* to go wash my hands-- anything to settle my nerves down a bit. I excuse myself, and get up from my chair.
The washroom is across the dining room, but I have to go around the table and go by her chair to head toward the door. So, I get up, and with much more "intent" or "focus" than I thought that I was putting in to it, I move to head towards the washroom.......
except...
my Screw-The-Establishment-Walletchain has hooked on to a rather solid part of her chair unbeknownst to me, and with the speed and finesse of a magician pulling the tablecloth out from underneath the crystal-- I yank her chair right out from underneath her, and take it with me for about 2 to 3 steps before I realise just what has happened. :hospital-snoopy:
I apparently turned so red that I was purple, and that I believe that so much blood was going into me blushing that I have no memory of what happened next.
(apparently, though, she forgave me... and considered me "endearing" as that wasn't our only date! lol )
(oh, and no-- no more walletchains.)

Embarass myself? LOL, which time?
How about the crazy guy that filled two tube socks full of unshelled nuts and was swinging them as if wielding war hammers...in front of the courthouse...during lunch break...
and guess who got the call...
I parked the cruiser close enough and after seeing the first sock mangled and walnuts on the roadway, unhitched my mace, approaced
the crazy guy with a whole lotta courthouse onlookers (Judges, Bailiffs, Joe Citizen)
and commanded said Crazy Guy to :
"put your nuts on the hood"
...no compliance..
"I SAID, PUT YOUR NUTS ON THE HOOD"
:seconddoh::pointing:
...nowhere to hide.
I'm sitting here just cracking up over this story.

-looks around to see if lyric is watching-
Holy hell... yes, I'm watching. God, that sounds bad!
I got a kick out of teasing you... which I thought was pretty funny because the no eye contact thing was either cute... or very, very weird. However, it wasn't nearly as funny after we figured out the microphone was on... because I knew just how bad I sounded, and she had no context clues with which to figure out what was going on! LOL
I think your telling this story just might be one of the most embarrassing things that's happened to me in a long time!

AND now that work is over and I have more time... I wanted to add... the whole no eye contact thing was freaking me the hell out. I thought I played it off in a teasing way, with the nudges and the whole "why won't you look at me" and "is something wrong" and whatever else I said that probably didn't sound as teasing as I meant it to but probably completely betrayed how much I was freaking out on the inside... LOL
There was a past occasion where I'd met someone from online who actually said to me, "You're not really what I was expecting. I usually don't go for girls who are overweight like you are." so when Toxic continued to stare straight ahead... at her phone... at the sky... at a telephone pole... I was like, WTF?! Is it my ass? LOL When Toxic pointed out that I'd performed this little display in front of a microphone, I gracefully excused myself so that I could go outside and have a heart attack all by my lonesome.
On other occasions, I've mis-sent posts and emails to people, such as the time I emailed a friend about a guy we knew, an email in which I detailed all of the many ways and reasons why this guy was a first class asshole. I was so up in arms that I actually sent it to said guy by mistake, instead of my friend. Another time, I was the emcee for an online graphic design auction for about 80 people. Someone sent me a whisper in the chat that said something like "waving my tinklebug in your face" and I replied in all caps, shouting "YOUR TINKLEBUG!! GET THAT TINKLEBUG OUT OF MY FACE AND PUT IT BACK IN YOUR PANTS WHERE IT BELONGS!"... but I said it to the entire audience at the auction instead of in private to my friend.
Self-degradation comes really easily to me, Medusa, so don't worry. You're not alone!

On a recent trip to Trader Joe's I encountered this pesky little sales guy who was short like me and around every corner I turned asking if he could help me with something. After the sixth time bumping into him I finally needed some assistance and asked if he could help me find the turkey jerky. We searched together and were unable to find it. At that point he told me I should try the buffalo jerky, because it was "really, really good." I very haughtily said "I don't eat beef" and turned and walked away.
It was really only recounting the story to my lover when I realized (or she realized) that "buffalo isn't beef sweetie." Gah! I am in fact sure it was much worse to be embarrassed in front of my partner, than some creepy sales guy!
**not my biggest embarrassing moment... but I'm working up to it!

Hmmmm...it's reasuring to know I'm not the only one who's done such emarrasing things. My story...
I was just getting to know this butch I'd met on one of those gay dating sites. Shortly after we'd met - I think it was like the 3rd interaction, she started writing some very leud and disgusting things about what all she was going to do to me when she had me in her clutches... Now, mind you, I'm not a prude (well, not too much, lol), but this was beyond crossing the line - esp. since I didn't know her. To this date - some 5 or 6 years after the incident - I still turn red thinking about it.
Well, to make a long story short - I emailed a femme buddy of mine full of indignation and telling her what a pig I thought this butch was, and how disgusted I was with her, blah, blah, blah. Well, don't you know I accidentally copied the butch on the email!! I didn't realize I'd done that 'til my buddy informed me of the fact!! Boy, was my face red!!! And, needless to say, I never heard from the butch again - so it wasn't all a total loss, lol.

Used the restroom at work on the main floor.
Somehow I tucked the back of my skirt in my panties.
I rode the elevator up to the 3rd floor and walked through the office bldg with my ass hanging out.

My best friend was having her 50th birthday party in Ft Lauderdale. My partner and I went and of course didn't bring everything we needed, nor did we discover everything we needed the first or second time we went to the local K-Mart (I think it was a K-Mart.)
On this third trip, we bought a friend who'd adopted my partner. I'm at one end of a very long shoe aisle with the friend. My partner is at the other end of the very long shoe aisle. I hear my partner say: "Hey Eileen, you'll never guess who's here?" I turn and say to he, "Who?" She says, "My dad!" I say, "Not if he's got two arms he's not."
Backstory: I've not met her father, but I do know he's about 6 foot tall with silver hair. His left arm was amputated about 20 years ago.
Out from behind the end of the shoe rack steps a man, about 6 foot tall with silver hair. He takes one more step out, and his left arm sleeve is missing, as is his arm. I have just met my father-in-law. My face never even got red. It went straight from fair complected to purple in a nano-second. I turned around and just started walking.
When my partner could finally talk, after getting control of her laughter, she said, "Honey, that's not my dad. Gotcha!" The gentleman standing next to her was chuckling.
She just couldn't resist when she spotted him (she has a radar for left arm amputees.) She asked him if it would be okay; he thought it was funny.
This was 13 years ago. My partner/wife and I divorced last year. She's still waiting for payback. I still haven't found the perfect opportunity for that, but I keep looking.

Getting to my Oncology appointment and being asked by the Dr if she can examine me for lumps in my lymph nodes and realising I left the house with
no knickers on.......:|
In my defence I was freshly showered and moisturising my legs when the door knocked, I slipped my dress on quickly and ran down to answer and then was doing three things at once, as you do, left the house in a rush and didnt realise until I was hopping on the couch.
Only above the waste I tell her sheepishly. OK she smiles with a puzzled look.

This morning I accidentally signed an important business email with “Best retards” instead of “Best regards”. Didn’t realize it until it was too late. :sigh:
