It was a few yrs ago, I was a manager in a fast food restaurant, and this piece of equipment wouldn't heat up, couldn't ring the electrician at 6am, waited till 7.30am, wouldn't been able to open the restaurant without this thing on, out comes the electrician 20 mins later, bless him!! .... turned out to be the ngt manager had left them on, I'd gone to the cupboard, switched them to what I thought was on....
The electrician covered my back, and put a good reason on!! xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
After I had my DD I was in hospital for a few days and was on a ward with 7 other women. During that time my body decided to be really windy and as I had stitches I couldn't hold the farts in or let them out quietly, so that I didn't look like a tramp (was a very quiet ward), everytime I farted I blamed it on my DD bless her!
When I was 17 I worked at a local football club in the shop, myself and a lad were in charge of shirt printing so were in the storeroom most of the day. I really fancied the lad and was always trying to impress him, there was lots of giggling and flirting going on. After one particular flirt session he had said something that had me crying laughing and I laughed that loud that I let out the loudest fart that still to this day I have never equalled. :eek: I just wanted the ground to swallow me up, I was devastated and thought that he would never speak to me again. We have been married for 8 years now and he still picks on me now about it.
Like a previous posted said, I too am not a windy person all the time!0 -
Aged 13 or 14 I went to a Take That concert wearing dusky blue leggings and a TShirt... had stomachache but I was so engrossed in the concert... it ended, the lights came on, I looked down... I had started my period. It was that bad I might as well have put a flashing beacon on my head.
The embarrassment still haunts me....!!!OU Student! - ED209, SDK125, DSE212, SK124, DSE141, SD226, DXR222, DD303, DD307 = BSc Psychology0 -
I have a couple.
I'd just moved to London for Uni, and my brand new house-mates and I had all gone out for ice-breaking drinks. After a great night, I woke up the next morning feeling more than a little groggy. I was exhausted, but soon realised what had woken me was a horrible, irritating droning noise. At first, I couldn't figure out where it was coming from. I checked all around my room, and eventually realised it was coming from one of the other girl's rooms. I tapped gently on her door, and then tentatively nudged it open. She was passed out on her bed, arms and legs akimbo, under her duvet... with her Rampant Rabbit still in position - but after being on for over six hours, it was now reduced to a monotonous, almost pathetic whirring and circling. She snapped her eyes open to look at me just as it dawned on me what was going on. I attempted a small laugh, but we were both absolutely mortified.
Another happened to my friend who worked for Pizza Hut. He was working on an incredibly busy Friday evening. A family of four had already complained about the length of time they'd been waiting for their pizza, and they began making eyes at him again, so he went to the kitchen to see if he could hurry it along. He'd been on his feet all day, and was tired, frazzled and hungry. He decided to sneakily pinch a piece of peperoni off the top before taking it out to them. Apologising to them profusely for the delay, he placed the pizza down in front of them, only to be met with angry glares from the diners. When he looked down, he saw there was a long string of cheese stretching from the pizza to his collar!0 -

This happened just the other day. My hubby is a postie & I saw a flash of his red t-shirt come past the window and decided to be naughty. Ran to the letter box, crouched down and said in a seductive/carry on film voice "Oooh postie, do you have a big package for me"... cue silence... then "erm no love I think it's just a gas bill". It wasn't my hubby, it was our normal postie :eek: Thank God my hubby doesn't work in the local office that delivers round here!0

A few years ago I went to Berlin with a friend, we had a great weekend and it came time to get the train to the airport. Everyone knows how they always remind you to watch the gap? Everywhere you look right? Well me thinking I need to be careful lifted my bag onto the train first before stepping on, only I missed the step! Thankfully I didn't go right down just the one leg, but my friend was that embarrassed she walked off laughing and I was in such an awkward position I couldn't pull myself up. Queue some germans looking at me and trying to pull me up with my friend pushing from behind (no I'm not that heavy). I was so embarrased I walked right through 2 carriages before finding a seat to sit down0
