‘I sent an email to my boss describing a potential client as a timewaster.
Except I didn’t, I sent it to the potential client.
In my defence, he didn’t become a client, so I was right… Right?’

I sent a text to a female colleague asking if she was “busty today” instead of “busy”. Thankfully she had a sense of humour about it but I just died of embarrassment and apologised profusely.

‘Slagged off a friend, who really didn’t deserve it. I was drunk, not that it is an excuse, and accidentally sent it to her.
She ended the friendship and I am still beating myself up over it.At least it motivated me to finally get help for my drink problem, but it was an awful thing to do and I really hurt someone who trusted me and had been extremely kind to me.’

‘Not a text an email, well over 20 years ago I worked for a massive corporation, the sales lads would send poo porn via email and similar disgusting lads group things, any way one day I received a video of a Lady smearing herself in the brown stuff, decided to forward on to one of the lads in Liverpool via email Chris Jones.. our email systems would bring up an email address as you are typing it in the address field, any way banged in chris jones and thought that doesn’t look right, somehow I had sent it to Christine Jones at our London head office, I cant put Into words the fear that ran through my body in that Instant, I was nearly sick…. I ran down to the floor below us and begged the IT guy to help me, he said if it hasn’t been opened on her side he could delete it from the server and she would never know it existed, that was the most intense 5 min of my life, luckily it was removed and I didn’t lose my job The IT guy still to this day loves to remind me of it, never did I forwarded those emails ever again’

‘working in logistics…. thought I was texting my weed link asking for an ounce… turned out i was actually texting my customer (a bagged flour distributor) by mistake asking for an ounce. Fortunately he is a top bloke and replied with a ”we only do kilo’s here”. We have a good laugh about it when we meet at Christmas most years.’

‘Me and my missus live and care for my grandma with dementia. She goes to a dementia social group twice a week where she gets picked up and brought back home.
The day before she goes, she spends ages in her bedroom trying to pick her outfit for the next day.
There was one day where I think my missus was in our bedroom, my grandma had come up and I was downstairs. She text me asking if my grandma was upstairs (cause we have to move the stairlift when it’s upstairs if we need to go down)
I didn’t have my phone and started replying on my watch, where it’s a tiny keyboard and I have fat fingers “no, she’s upstairs picking her uterus”
“Uterus*”
“Uterus*”
“OUTFIT***”’
