AIBU?

I farted on his teacher

Help meeeee

I bumped into my sons teacher in the toilets of Sainsbury’s OF ALL PLACES.
It was an awkward “oh hello” moment. She’s washing her hands, I bend down to reshuffle all my carrier bags that are hanging off my hands and with my arse in her direction I FUCKING FARTED.
I hate my pelvic floor and I hate my arse.
It was so loud and I looked at her right after. Why did I do that?! And she pretended not to see me looking and went about drying her hands but she couldn’t have missed it for the world.
I have parents night on Tuesday.
I would rather live in Sainsbury’s toilets forever than see her again.

She farts too, right?

Oh OP 😂 We've all got an horrendous farting story, and now you do too!

Itssosunny · 30/03/2019 20:59

OP, you should write it here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3544266-Most-embarrassing-moment-at-work

WhiteDust · 30/03/2019 20:59

She was probably mildly amused and forgot about it 5 mins later.
Don't worry about it OP. She's not going to chat about it at P eve.

Itssosunny · 30/03/2019 20:59

Not write of course but read to see that there are worse moments.

BlueMerchant · 30/03/2019 21:00

That's hilarious.
Your Ds will be forever known as 'the one with the farty mum'.
Only kidding.

MeOldBamboo · 30/03/2019 21:00

You can NEVER go into school again. . I have just read this out to my DH and we have roared with laughter. Thanks for cracking us up!!!

Bobbycat121 · 30/03/2019 21:01

I dont have any embarrassing fart stories. Nothing like that has ever happened to me, feel lucky I dont struggle holding them in! I would be mortified sorry op!

Sparklesocks · 30/03/2019 21:01

Nooooooooo

notsosureaboutthatthough · 30/03/2019 21:07

If she was known for having a good sense of humour, I might go to parents evening and say “ hey oop, il try not to fart on you this time”

But she’s really not.
And I probably wouldn’t anyway.

She probably thinks I was bursting on a big shit. I stayed I there for ten minutes as I didn’t want to pass her again. Then I remembered parents night

I am a teacher and wouldn't give a dam if one of my parents farted in my presence. The only thing l hate and fail to understand is parents swearing when they are talking to me about their children. Otherwise l wouldn't blink an eye. We get used to that with kids as you have to completely ignore farting in class or there would be uproar with the others laughing. I always give a cold stare to any sign of merriment and plough straight on.

Imfinehowareyou · 30/03/2019 21:11

She's a teacher. She spends all day having to breathe in kids' farts and pretend it doesn't bother her. It's normal for her sadly speaks from experience

The teacher may think that her DC is just like his/her mum
The kids fart like hell, don't they. The classrooms often are so stinky.

BlueMerchant · 30/03/2019 21:14

'I'll try not to fart on you...'
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Please say that and report back.

Claire90ftm · 30/03/2019 21:21

I'm sorry OP, but tbh, if an adult farted ON me, I'd be pretty disgusted. I'm sure she's looking forward to seeing you after the incident as much as you're looking forward to seeing her.

7circlemats · 30/03/2019 21:22

😂 I'm a teacher OP, this would have made me laugh so much and I'm afraid I would tell everyone 🤦‍♀️

Fresta · 30/03/2019 21:22

I bet she's going to tell her colleagues in the staffroom about it though

LarryGreysonsDoor · 30/03/2019 21:24

Human beings fart. It’s life.
Children fart all day long.
It’s especially bad if they have assembly after lunch and they are all sitting cross legged on a hard floor. It reverberates.

Tinkoschminko · 30/03/2019 21:26

I’m a teacher and you would be my favourite parent if you made a joke about it.

StarlingsEverywhere · 30/03/2019 21:26

I farted on my midwife’s hand when she checked my stitches the day after DS was born. I did say “I’m going to fart!” but it was literally a second before. She gave me the dirtiest look! You’d think it would be an occupational hazard!

Littlefish · 30/03/2019 21:27

That will definitely be talked about in the staffroom!

Potatonose · 30/03/2019 21:42

You should have smiled after looking her in the eye.

notsosureaboutthatthough · 30/03/2019 21:50

Should I make a joke? Maybe then she will think I’m weird and it’s likely to happen again.. and what would I even say. “Hi how are you, good day shopping? Sorry I ruined it by farting on you”

Oh no they are all going to be talking about me aren’t they.

The rhymey surname I have that works great with ‘fart’ is coming back to haunt me from the depths of childhood playground jokes.

Uuuurrrggh

She'll be used to farting.
Before I identified my IBS triggers, if I could feel one brewing, I'd stand near the silly boys and let them fight over the glory. They only rumbled me the once

notsosureaboutthatthough · 30/03/2019 21:52

Ok that made me laugh.
What, like a slow creeping sideways glance type smile.. eyes following her all the way out the room
