That Awkward Moment at Work When....
Replies
-
when your working at yours desk and have your music playing in your ear buds, and you have to fart. So you pinch it off and let it flow out softly then realize you had your headphones on and your not sure if it was silent or a squeaker or worse...
^this! Or you fart loud and proud 'cause no one is in your office. Only to have someone walk into the stench a few moments later!. Or even worse bend over to pick something up and fart, the WHOLE office hears it and teases you for weeks.0 -
I work for a fastener distributor (nuts & bolts) I was obtaining a quote for a customer on a large diameter nut. I called the customer and without thinking told him I found his nuts.
So lets add that to my list of awkward moments at work...:laugh:0 -
walking out after an exceptionally long day in the office to see a co worker in the arms of a woman that ISNT the one he introduced to you as his WIFE a week ago at the company christmas party0

When you hang up the phone or think you hung up the phone and say *f****ing idiot* and realize that you didn't hang up. Then they call you back to confront you and you have to say you were talking to the person beside you. Then that person comes to your workplace the next day to pick up what they called for and sees your the only secretary that works there. Then after meeting them in person you find out he's a bigger *f****ing idiot* than you thought he was when you just knew him over the phone so you don't feel so bad for saying it in the first place.0

I used to work in a tech support center. Cube mate was trading mushy (but work safe) emails all morning with his wife..Hes having a customer reboot and in the lull hes reading one of said emails...Next thing I hear is "i love you....................................NO....NO....NO........ NO SIR.... NOT YOU.... IM SORRY IF THAT MAKES YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE SIR.... IT WAS A MISTAKE SIR.......IM REALLY REALLY REALLY SORRY"
The whole helpdesk stopped to watch him wriggle out of this exchange..0 -
When I am multi-tasking - typing a note to my husband and talking to a client at the same time. I told the client I looked forward to sleeping with him soon.
LMBO - I have done something very similar.0 -
...your ballet flat crocs make a farty noise when you walk across the main floor.
I scuff when i walk occasionally, but everytime i do... People give me such gross looks.. I just want to yell at them its my shoes!!!0 -
I work at a gynecologists office so I have more than my fair share of awkward moments, none of which you probably want to hear about
Every last one of them!! :laugh:0 -
when a coworker tells me hes a convited fellon for murder, when I asked him why he did it he said he crossed him, OMG!!! We call him stabby Andy now and I always smile very big for him
Hurries to create new "Stabby Andy" account...don't cross me, woman :laugh:
OMG, I have a "creepy andy" at my office!!! Do we work at the same place?! lol0 -

This made me giggle as I work in call centre, and hear all sorts of things all the time.0 -
sitting a small, poorly ventilated cash office alone and *toot*....3 seconds before someone comes in. Never fails.
sitting the same office, counting money while singing and chair dancing...and then realizing there is a security camera on you at all times0 -
When you are sitting in the office with the door open and the parts guy comes in (doesn't know you are there) and starts talking to
the shop guys about his newest threesome of this past weekend. So you decide to go to the potty and get a look at this stud.
Come out of the office to see and smell the stinkiest, dirtball looking Santa guy and you know his threesome was in his head! But
it made for some good horsing around after he left! :laugh:0 -
Oh, oh, I have another one...my hubby used to change in his office at work to go running after work...only to discover there was a security camera in his office area. Which wouldn't be SO bad...except he used tights under his running clothes, which meant probably going down to BD suit before getting on his workout clothes. :noway:0

Or when a client calls and you say "what can I do to you" instead of "what can I do FOR you".0

You are hilarious!0

This lady I used to work with would come in to my cube, perch one buttcheek on the corner of my desk and just sit there and chat away.
So, one day, she just rips a monster fart with no warning. Right there on my desk.
Awkward.
"..... you had quinoa for lunch, didn't you?"
So this frumpy nag basically takes a dump on my keyboard... and I'm the one with the write-up from HR for using the "B" word.
From that point on, I felt completely justified sticking her phone receiver in my asscrack when she was down the hall, and then intercom-calling her desk once she got back. "TALK TO MY @SS, B!TCH!"0 -
Your assigned as the piss test observer and the guy doing the test is so nervous he has to poop to pee.0

.... you don't see the boss coming from behind, and you're busy playing Texas Hold'em Poker on the work hour.0
-
...you didn't rinse the coffee maker well enough when you were cleaning it so now the coffee has soap bubbles in it.0
-
.....When a male customer asks, 'Oh. Excited to see me, huh?" and you're confused as all get out until you realize that with it being so cold in the store, your nips are poking right through your top.
.....When trying to sell something to a customer, you get tongue tied... again and again and again.
....When a customer comes in who is already hesitant about approaching you about a particular item and you have to play the guessing game to see just what he wants.. and it turns out to be Extenze. YOU see nothing out of the ordinary, but he's blushing just a wee bit.0 -
Awkward moment at work when the fire alarm interrupts the nap you usually take until noon. Thankfully that was only a summer job.
Also, when you work for your boyfriend (he's physically disabled and I'm his aid) and the administrators from the office drop in to do an on-site visit, but neither of us are awake, let alone clothed.0 -
When you're invited to the managers' meeting and you sneeze, and a giant string of booger comes flying out. At least i caught it with my sleeve I guess.0

When you tell your patient's daughter to write her name and number down, and she assures you that she is his WIFE (even though she's clearly half his age! Talk about an "insert foot into mouth" moment.0

you are in the bathroom and someone walks into the stall next to you talking on thier cell phone!
This happened at my campus. I was in the bathroom actually just to fix my shirt, but that required me taking off my top shirt and unbuttoning my pants, so I went into a stall. A girl got into the stall next to mine and I hear, "Hi, I'm returning your call." So, what do I do? Flush the toilet. Yep, I'm kind of an asshat.0 -
I'm STILL trying to find a job......hold on and I'll let you know when I find one.....LOL0

I am a nurse..... there isn't a shift that goes by without an awkward moment..... the best so far...
"Sir it's important for you to have the raised toliet seat because of ur hip"
" No No I don't want that contraption" (old people especially men don't like "new" things)
"Sir you are really going to want that on there...."
"ya ya I heard you .... it's for my hip I don't care"
"Sir its not only for ur hip, its so ur balls don't float in the toliet bowl water"
"So how do I sit on this?"0 -
... you call your manager on his phone because a very upset customer wants to speak with him NOW. He finally picks up and informs you that he is sitting on the toilet.0
-
when your boss, who hates texting etc, says in front of you to a patient, "I don't twitter, tweet, or *kitten*", and says it with a straight face because he apparently doesn't know what the word *kitten* means...and then the patient explains what the word means to him0
