I texted my ex-partner once who had gone into an interview, the following text: "Text me when you get out of your meeting sweetie x"

A few hours later I had a meeting with my boss for my yearly appraisal.

He looked at me sternly across his desk, held up his phone to show me a text on the screen, to my horror it was my text I sent to my ex-partner, he smirked and said, "Was this meant for me?"

If there was ever a time in my life when I needed a sink hole to swallow me up...it was then..

I once dropped a ten pound bollock- wild boar I think it was - probably the biggest one. Made quite a mess.

I did one last year. The project manager was sharing his screen with the client (large transport company). We were demoing a very basic system and needed feedback from them. The project although small would generate a couple of hundred thousand in revenue. It was already a tense meeting as we pitched potential solutions to the client stakeholders. I was getting frustrated as I was looking for them to give us some feedback. So I sent a Skype message to the project manager (who's sharing his screen) saying "this is frustrating they need to throw us a bone". Next thing I know he's got the message on screen with the client audience. Took him what seemed like 4 hours to kill it but was probably 10 seconds. Knowing how pivotal the call was expletives came tumbling out of my mouth. Thankfully I was on mute otherwise I'd have been seeking alternative employment! Somehow we got away with it.

If your buttocks were clenched at the time Jim, I fully understand.
