OMG, definitely....we usually have Friday morning meetings. 7AM I was talking and after I got through talking and telling everyone what they needed to do and must do I ended saying. "AMEN" real loud as if I was in church...I was like OMG. Sorry ya'll you can tell I go to church ALOT!
Two weeks ago, I come into work and as soon as I sit down, my supervisor comes over and starts asking 50-leven questions before I could even clock in. I was heated! I sent an email to the two people that sit around me stating 'Can I at least sit down and clock in before I get asked 80 questions?'. I leave my desk and go to the break room and I had asked one of the girls had she gotten my message. She said 'no but I'll check it in a minute'.10 minutes go by and she was like, 'your email was hilarious, but did you mean to send that to your supervisor too?' I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I thought she was messing with me, but sure enough....instead of sending it to my second neighbor, I sent it to my supervisor...who I was talking about!First action was to recall the message because I knew she was in a meeting. Failed. So my coworker and I came up with an idea to pretend like I was having a bad morning. So she went to her desk and apologized for asking me questions (as if I was addressing her and my supervisor). I then came back and apologized and said I had a very bad weekend.The supervisor wrote me back and said 'I know things have been very trying, but dont get that worked up. Things will get better...I promise'. She was super nice to me ever since. So what was an embarrassing situation turned out to be great in the end...LOL!
I was on the opposite end of a similar one. I was conducting my staff meeting. I usually go over my schedule, upcoming Leadership Meetings that we needed to prepare material for and other assignments we needed to complete. I decided to change the format and started to ask individuals in my team to bring in topics or bring in an expert from other parts of the company to educate us on what was going on in their areas. During one of these expert presentations, one of my team members was trying to send an IM to another team member stating "At least it's better than listening to him talking about his f-ing schedule". I IMed him back "Somehow I don't think this was supposed to be for me". The fun part is he had to sit tight for the rest of the staff meeting, knowing that I was staring him down.
Ooooooh! To be at that meeting... Funnaaaaaaay!
Hey Tip Tip three five seveeeeeeeeeeen! Been missin' you girl! Me and another LGMer were talking the other day and we both wondered where you'd been.
I was in a meeting with my District Manager, who I find very attrcive... Anyway, he hands me this document that I needed to circulate to my team, and a random booger falls out of my nose, and lands on the paper as I was taking it from him. It slapped the paper and had a hair in it. LOL. Gross, yes, embarassing, OH YEAH!
KNOCK & LOCK folks....My embarassing moment JUST HAPPENED: There's a restroom on my floor that's a "one-holer" (just one toilet, with a LARGE vanity and LARGE mirror [that's key]).I'm in there doin my thing and next thing I know, someone's opening the door!!!!!!!! I'm like "What the----!!" So, I gets up offa da stool (don't you just love the visual? ), reeeach over and close the door & push the button in to lock it! When I sit back down, I wonder, "Gee, did they get that view of me in the mirror as they were opening the door??"

When I sit back down, I wonder, "Gee, did they get that view of me in the mirror as they were opening the door??" Now, to be honest, I usually don't lock the door cuz I thought I was working with grown folks who know how to KNOCK upon seeing a closed door. So lesson learned here is LOCK the dang door next time!!
I am soooooooo embarrassed for you... Heck that ain't nothin'! Some dude has actually walked in on me in a Borders bookstore. Unfortunately it was one of those long narrow toilet cubicles where the "stool" is far from the dorr so i couldn't reach out and lock it. It was horrible and the silly guy stood there for 5 secs...the longest 5 secs of my life.
What the heck could've been going through his lil mind for 5 whole seconds....as he stood there...watching....?
This didn't happen at work, but it was on my way to work...Today, I was kinda in a rush because I was leaving the later than usual and they are doing some construction work on the highway. Well, I left the house to go to my car and I opened the passenger side door, sat down and closed the door...sitting there for a minute waiting...I was hoping that nobody saw me, but the nosy neighbor down the street was out watering the lawn...
