We haven't had one of these lately. Amusing embarrassing situations, anyone going to own up? Have you made a complete prat of yourself recently?

This is a touchy topic but I'm feeling fearless today so I'll go first. One time at work I left the ladies room with the hem of my skirt tucked into the waist of my pantyhose, exposing my whole backside. I worked at a hospital and walked the halls for probably a good 15 minutes before I discovered to my horror what had been causing the breezy feeling. It wasn't funny to me, at least not at the time, but I'm sure it was hilarious to everyone else!

Oh God! I hoped not to repeat this but i'll bite the bullet.

I'd been having issues with my monthly 'women' problems, and my mother had kindly written down a number for me to call and discuss them. I rang... and started rambling on about what was going on, only to have a probably embarassed man on the other end of the line say "I'm sorry dear, this is Origin Energy".

My mum had written the number of our gas and electric company underneath, and i had dialled the wrong number

Oh dear nic, that would be embarrassing.
Good for you for sharing it!

Once, many years ago, I worked at a bank in the Foreign Exchange dept. and was in charge of the Foreign Drafts which were kept locked in a metal box. I wheeled myself on my chair to reach down into the box but the chair caught on something and fell over. I fell on my behind with my legs straight out in front of me and of course I was wearing a dress.

Im still not sure but I think everyone infront of me saw my underwear. I still blush just thinking about it.

I have posted this before but a long time ago.

Many years ago I was on the PTA committee at my daughter's school and we were organising a fete with a circus theme. At the meeting it was discussed that the stallholders might dress up in the theme.

On the morning of the fete we went to set everything up for the afternoon and I made a point of going to all the other women and asking if they were going to dress up, they replied yes.

I went home, put on a pair of trousers belonging to a short fat neighbour, wore rainbow striped braces (suspenders), striped socks. My hair was sprayed bright blue and teased on end and I put on a hairband with glitter ball on the end of wires. On my face I used facepaints to make a clown face.

I had to drive to the school like it and got some strange stares at traffic lights.

Arrived at the school and not one other parent was dressed up, they all looked VERY smart. When I asked if they were 'dressing up' they thought I meant in good smart clothes rather than in jeans and t-shirts!

Whoops - I am not sure if my daughter has forgiven me yet.

LOL, sorry but that is so amusing - although probably not to you at the time.

Thanks Prof I had not thought about not having underwear on at the time....

Perhaps our two embarrassing moments are a mirror image of each other. Had a good laugh at yours too.
