Office mishaps

So, I'm in the office and I'm listening to my iPod while working.

Silverchair, hammers through and I haven't heard this tune (suicidal dream) in ages. Linkin Park's In the End is next, then Oasis Wonderwall and I'm taken. Full blown air guitar and me mouthing the words. I've forgotten myself.

Staff member walks in.

Nothing I can say really so we just look at each other, me with a dumb expression on my face. :lol:

  • Took sleeping pill at 1am when under the influence, went into work the next day feeling a little bit groggy, fell asleep and fell off my chair mid-morning.

    Getting caught singing at full volume.......

    In the office very lat at night - 1am kinda time. Don't expect anyone else to be in there. iPod on: Last Train Home by Lost Prophets.

    Singing as loud as I possibly can, with no tonality at all - tap on shoulder from Blonde girl working 5 cubicles behind me....

    Oh dear.....

    Also got caught in shower room with nohing on by ops director (female). Just back from holiday; Little did I know that the shower rooms had be changed from single sex to shared while some building work was ongoing - cubicle doors had been erected to allow oneself a ltlle descrete room. I decided to wander out of cubicle stark boll*ck naked and get changed in the main area.....in walks female ops director fresh from her run....

    Bad 1970s music playing in the background, by chance?

    I rolled my chair the other week; span it round one way to check some working on the whiteboard and simultaneously tried to lob something into the waste bin in the other direction. Physics took over and the chair disappeared from under me, leaving me tangled up in it with coffee all over my flares. Larf? I almost did.

    Duals screens on my desk. Last year.... Emailed the GF something nice, didn't realise I had typed it into Excel on the other screen by mistake. Didn't realise at all actually, until my Director who I sent the mail and spreadsheet to replied and let me know. True story!

    I once sent Ms DDD a saucy message. She left her phone at work. Went into the office the next day where a colleague gave her back her phone and as she said thanks the colleague (male) just started laughing...

    Ms DDD got out of that office and back into her's sharpish and a little red faced.

    not exactly a mishap, or technically in a office but i tend to be the mishap.

    Working in a over expensive high street sports shop that also sounds the same as a famous whisky, some of the lads take position and our victim arrives in the upstairs store room, out go the lights and the gaffa tape out, arms and legs tied and a bit over the mouth.

    all fled the room and kindly put the light back on, now to see how long it takes for the boss to go looking for him, glad he saw the funny side! :twisted:
