Workplaces are the locations where we happen to behave in the very best behavior of ours. Because image! But some of us have had situations with our work where we could not help but be embarrassed.
People have come forward and expressed their embarrassing moments in their workplaces on Twitter. Standing ovation for bravery! Let’s look into them!

What's the biggest mistake you've ever made at work? I once accidentally erased a section of the master tape for a Radio 4 Afternoon Play. It still haunts me.

17ish years old and had a summer job as a summer scheme leader. In the first week we took a bunch of 6-10 year olds to a balloon festival. I counted them off the bus then back on and only realised when we got back that the small crying child wasn't one of ours.

Many years ago when a #studentnurse, I worked on a care of the elderly ward. I tried to manage time better by filling a sink and putting all the patients false teeth in together to clean. I did a fabulous job cleaning them until I had to give them back to their right owners 🙊

You know when put something in a super safe place and forget where that super safe place was? I did that. With a client’s cheque for over €500k. Problem was, I forget where the super safe place was. I still don’t know. 🙈

I recorded a radio promo for an upcoming commentary, kept getting it wrong and screamed abuse at myself into the microphone. When I edited it down I accidentally left in the bit where I loudly called myself a "c***". It went out on air 6 times before I had a chance to delete it.

In my first week at work I somehow deleted the entire home page of the website I’d been employed to manage.

My wife had written 100,000 words of a novel, and I accidentally deleted the root directory of the hard drive.

Did you notice some of the confessions were so close to the narrator’s death? God save this world. From stupidty. Of course.
