    I was responsible for advertising an it's an knockout competion and was pressed for time to no real notice of the flyers. They all went out without the "n" in the knockout.

    At least it made a great day that little bit special. Thankfully nobody was there for the mis-spelt comp.

    A former colleague was explaining why he needed new IT hardware to a customer.

    He meant to say it would make a significant improvement to his network. He actually said "it would make a "sniffacunt" improvement...."

    A friend of mine announced to her workmates that her new mongrel pup was "gorgeous - just like a little durex dog". (she was in the middle of decorating her sitting room at the time).

    When I first started out in my current work place, my Boss pulled a trick on me,thinking I was going to say it in my head first....

    He told me that I'd had a call from someone, and handed me a post-it note with a name and number on it. I didn't recognise the name and read it out loud...

    .... Mike Hunt...

    I'm not sure who was more embarrassed, him or me, but EVERYONE within ear shot turned around and looked. We still laugh about it to this day

    Years ago I called Crunchy Nut Cornflakes Crunchy C*nt Cornflakes with my mum and auntie in earshot.

    I still cringe thinking about it. In my defence I'd hardly any sleep. And I know what you're thinking, No I'm Not :)

    The same, ahem, subject is coming up a lot though!

    ahh that reminds me of one of my mates.

    He went to the shop to get him some cigs and i asked him to get me a bottle of milk cos i fancied a bowl of Frosties. He got my milk and went to the counter, instead of asking for cigs he asked for a bowl of Frosties.
