The reason why I ask this, is today I have met up with some ex work colleagues for lunch and to cut a long story short we began to reminisce about the gold old days working together at a well known high street store and it came across as though all embarassing moments always happen to me.

For example, I used to be in charge of the CCTV radio and I went on lunch to nip to the cash point and I heard the controller call me over the air to wave at the camera of which I did (nice men) then they called over the air and said Sue do you realise your blouse is undone and I looked down and OMG my blouse was undone,:o what made matters worse was that the other stores who had heard this all wanted a close up of the shot and began requesting it over the air, I was so shocked and I really wished for the ground to open and make me disappear lol

I have never hurried back to the store so quick and to this day I am still remebered as the CCTV flasher lmao.


So come on geeks share with me.

Sue :)
 
How long have you got........:)
 
ooo something similar happened to me I went to Florence Roby to buy my tunic when I started college...

If anyone has been you will know they have like a room with a door with the tunics in and stuff...

well me thinking I was clever said to my mate " oh just stand by the door make sure no one comes in I'll just try it on here....
Whipped me top off...was buttoning the tunic up, when in my mates boredom while staring at the ceiling (as you do when someone is undressing lol) she noticed the bloody CCTV....
It never even entered my head.....and WHY I bothered then covering my boobs dead quick I don't know, because they had already seen everything I had lol
 
I am so pleased that its not only me that this could happen too lol, another embarassing moment for me was when I saw the back of my boyfriend walking down the high street and I went running up behind him and grabbed his backside only to find that it wasn't my boyfriend it was a complete stranger OMG!! I just didn't know what to say or do other than comment that his backside was like two boiled eggs wraped in a hankerchief lol.... I think I made his day, his face wasn't that bad either tee hee!!

Well a girl I used to work with went on her honeymoon and bought a lovely dress for the going away event. She went to the loo on the aeroplane and thought everyone was looking at her special dress. Turned out she had her dress tucked into her knickers (big style).

I was slightly embarrassed looking around a rather packed bed linen shop with my sister and shouted across to her, asking "julie, what size is our bed", we had actually bought identical beds. My sister went bright red and everyone just stood still. I was falling over laughing, the faces on some people were hilarious.
 
I was at homebase with my husband and 2 kids and I was saying to the kids don't touch anything! like you do.
anyway was in que getting bored and there was a venus fly trap plant next
to me and yes you guessed it I touched it out of curiosity and it closed on my finger, frightening the life out of me so I jumped and screamed very loud
and made everyone around me jump. very embarrassing, my husband is always saying I am worse than the kids..

my most recent embarrassing moment was just last week. I'd taken my daughters to the hairdressers, sat in with them for over an hour...I then went to Tesco for a bit of shopping before heading home. After I'd got sorted in the house I sat down with a cuppa and then stood straight back up. I thought the back of my combats were wet so I asked my daughter 'are my duds wet?' She burst out laughing and I thought what the hell?? Then I put my hand there and felt not trousers but my bare a**e cheek :eek: The fabric had ripped from just below the waistband to almost the top of my leg. I walked about the house making 'eeeeh' 'ooooh' and 'arghhhh' noises for the next hour thinking about the supermarket trip :eek:

oh...forgot to add, I'm generally like you too! Always telling the kids not to touch only for me to go touching and knocking things over. I tend to travel to holland a lot as that's where hubby works and he is sure to keep me out of the ornament/gift section of the airport shops because the last twice we've been in there I've knocked stuff off the shelves and broken things. Luckily we haven't had to pay but still...it's quite embarrassing! :o
 
Im a one for falling over...dont know why ...think its because Im top heavy..:lol::lol::lol:. I done it yesterday outside my house,and its like omg I just hope no one see me, and then worst of all I had to root around under my car to retrieve my keys back after they come flying out of my hand, thank god it was not the weekend, hopefully none of the neighbours see.

My dog also had me over recently in the park, I was looking one way , she ran the other...over I went,could of died...couldnt see anybody about after I stumbled up, part from the cars going by,so hopefully no one saw me.:lol: And its always funny when I fall over, I go straight on my hands and say the same word...oh b*******.
 
Its not really that embarrasing for me but it is quite funny.My family and i do have a bit of a sick sense of humour and my dad has to have a wheelchair at the mo when we go out.He's 81 does look very frail but is in very good spirits.
We went to the zoo the other day and i do like to give him a bit of a fun ride a bit like you do with your kids in the pushchair going really fast and pretending to let go or run into things.He really thinks its funny and we do laugh at other peoples faces you can tell they are thinking look at what that womens doing to that poor old man.They probably think im an abusive careworker.

snap! My Nan is 81, and also very frail looking, she has angina among other things and finds walking very difficult. She rarely goes out now, but one place she will go is a big 'Blooms' garden centre, as I managed to convince her to try a wheelchair there once, she was fine in it, so will now only go there cos she feels safe and it doesn't exhaust her.
I whizz about with it, when she wants to stand up for something I tip the back of the chair to flip her out of it, I run towards a stand then stop just short of it, skid round the corners at top speeds while reminding her to keep her arms inside the vehicle at all times. She chortles away and loves it bless her! The looks I get off other people though are unreal! :lol: I don't care, she is my Nan and she is out and about enjoying herself :D
 
I was in a swanky bar with my other half when he opened a door for me to enter the garden area, i was a bit tipsy and as I walked through I reached behind me and grabbed his crown jewls... not knowing that he had let another bloke ( complete stranger ) through after me!!! The poor bloke was totally shocked and looked at me in disgust, my other half thought it was hilarious and decided to announce my misfortune to our group of friends who then gave me a round of applause when I walked back in.

I was out walking in the park the other day & I saw this woman walking her dog. Well, she didn't realise as she was looking the other way, but her dog saw a rabbit and hurtled off after it, swooping the woman to the ground......it was sooo funny I almost p'eed myself...was it you by any chance!!!!????

I was stood in the checkout the other day, when this little kid said to his mum, can I have a bag of sweets? The Mum said no, and he said 'if you don't buy them for me, I'll tell Dad you pulled the postman zip up and down with your teeth!!' ....he got the sweets:eek:
 
Trip to a winter wonderland at SECC last year, we walked round and it was all lovely and snowy.

Once we got outside there a group of gorgeous guys (I'm talking wow) and my mate said exitedly 'Oh I wish i lived in a wonderland, I love Snow' & me being an idiot said 'Me too I love being in about all that white stuff' I meant it so innocent but thats not how the gorgeous guys took it!

Needless to say there was plenty of crude comments and offers as I ran to the car.

It's my worst habit... I say something perfectly innocently but it comes out like porn! :lol:

Oh my gawd, what a little monkey (polite word):rolleyes::lol:

Years ago I remember coming home from my Saturday job and jumping off the bus and falling straight over on my butt I had no idea it was icy I'd been at work since silly O'Clock.
The bus driver got off to check I was O.K so I had a bus full of people watching and all I wanted to do was cry cos my bum hurt so much!:rolleyes::lol:
