‘I was looking at some stuff on instagram during a call and didn’t realise I had my wireless keyboard connected to the work laptop instead of my home PC. So I sent ‘Instagram [insert very attractive persons name]’ into the chat of an international business meeting instead of my search bar.’

‘I fell asleep while browsing Facebook and managed to share a post via WhatsApp to my plumber, along with a recording of me snoring! Luckily, I woke up, realised what I’d done and deleted them before he was able to view them.’

‘Oh God, this reminded me of a time I fell asleep on my phone and somehow ended up sharing a link to a thong on Asos to a guy from my uni halls. I didn’t really speak to him during uni, and this happened several years after I’d graduated. I wasn’t even on Asos when I fell asleep. He saw it.’

‘I used to be a postie and one day I had a fuck ton of cards for the same address. As I went to post them, this little old lady pulled into her drive way of the address. I said “It must be your birthday!” To which she replied “Sadly not. My husband died last week.” I wanted the ground to swallow me.

To make matters worse I decided to stop and have a chat with her as she told me about her husband’s life and when I got back to the office I got in trouble as my PDA had shown me standing still for 20 odd minutes.’

‘I sent a message ranting about my boyfriend (now husband) to my friend, but the chat I sent it in was actually a group chat between us and our partners, so both my boyfriend and my friend’s partner saw my rant. I was mortified. Obviously things worked out fine but every time I remember it I cringe.’

‘Not mine, but my ex’s … when out shopping she bumped into an acquaintance she hadn’t seen in a long while and said to her kindly ‘oh, you’re pregnant again, congratulations’. The other woman replied ‘I’m not pregnant’.’

’20 years ago I gave my dad a mobile phone that I was no longer using and was absolutely completely sure that I had deleted everything and restored it to factory settings… about ten years later, my step mother told me that they’d given the phone to her mother, who discovered that I had in fact NOT deleted anything. Let’s just say, they discovered some texts that absolutely no one wants their father or his mother-in-law to read. Ever.’

‘I was sat rehearsing a presentation in uni for three hours and some of the girls had an issue with what some of the others had included in parts of the presentation (not involving me). I then messaged my girlfriend saying everyone was a square. Everyone’s phones started pinging and I’d actually sent it to the group chat instead.’
