Bleh, I just did something stupid and fairly embarrassing at work. I work in a performing arts centre box office as a phone jockey. I just take ticket orders over the phone. ANYWAY, on to the embarrassment. For work we need two passwords, one to log into our computer profile, and one to log into the ticketing program, usually I keep these two passwords the same but the ticketing program one tends to expire first and today I had to change it. So my profile log in is the old one, but my program log in is new and my stupid brain latched on to "you have a new password" so I kept trying to log into my profile with the new one despite it not working and I got myself locked out. Effing. Brilliant.

Anyone else got some embarrassing stories to make me feel better about my stupidity?

I work at a frozen yogurt shop and most of the time at the register. So one day a man and woman came in to get yogurt. The man walked up first and put his yogurt on the scale. I weighed it and gave him his spoon. I waited and waited for the woman to come put hers on the scale so I could ring them up. The man was looking at me weird so I said "Sometimes choices are just over whelming for people, if she needs some sample cups I've got some here." Then he said "Who?". And I said "The woman you're with." And he looked at me weird and said "I don't even know her." I laughed and apologized, then rang him up. He left without even saying anything and sat down at our outside table. I felt so embarrassed. Then the woman came up and said "I hope my husband didn't give you much trouble, he can be a jokester." I felt so played. But you know, the joy of customers.

passwords are awful. at work we have a password on the printer to print in color and if you submit the wrong password or forget to enter it when you send it to print then it locks the printer down until a supervisor releases it. it also deletes the printing job queue so r.i.p. all those printing jobs that were waiting in line just because someone mis-typed a password

Lol, sounds like the kind of stupid thing my husband would pull.

Ooooooh, ouch. That's a REALLY evil place to put a password. I feel bad for for all your slightly (or more than slightly) dyslexic co-workers who must just sweat bullets when confronted with that thing. Or the poor shmucks who are just having off days. That stupid thing must cause so much embarrassment in that office.

Just my usual embarrassment (which isn't even that embarrassing anymore lol) of singing in the car and then stopping at a light and looking over to see another driver staring at me like 'WTF is wrong with her?!'

Just look them in the eye, smile and wave confidently, and keep rockin'! (That's what I do)

Depends on the look on their face. One time I actually looked over and the girl was singing the exact same song at the same time and we both smiled like idiots, rolled down our windows, and kept singing. That was pretty much an awesome moment. XD
