I just said 'bye bye. love you lots'

[AmyDudley]

on the phone to the garage mechanic who has just done my MOT when he phoned to tell me when to get the car.

Why? Why did I do that ? he will think I am mad won't he? He already thinks I'm odd because my mileage is so low because I just pop to the shops and back in the car.

My DD was in the hallway and overheard me and was wetting herself.

Every day I find new ways to embarrass myself.

I used to work in a dental surgery and was phoning a patient after just booking a table for that evening to take my wife out

The the lady patient answers the phone and I immediately say "Darling I've booked a table tonight for 7.30pm" the lady patient laughing says my hubby hasn't called me darling in years and 7.30 is good for me

I answered a call from my sons mobile with a very loud "yo!" It was his teacher using his phone to tell me he'd had an accident at school. I proceeded to blather on about how I don't usually answer the phone like that. Mortified.

Finished a video call to a patient by saying, “Bye, love you.”. Never clicked on the end call icon so quickly in all my life! Thankfully,
I’d just discharged them so didn’t have to face them again.

I just actually lol'ed

I did something utterly bizarre and ridiculous at the end of a meeting at my DC school. It was a big meeting with lots of people present (Headteacher, Educational psychologist, teacher, SENCO etc) and as it was time to leave, I stood up, kind of snorted/ giggled and tapped my hand on the desk and cheerily exclaimed "all the fun of the fair"
Cue stunned silence and bewildered faces.
I don't know why I said it, it's a phrase I've never, ever said before and God only knows why I blurted it out. Even DH looked gobsmacked.
Awful. Still want to cringe and often do.

Can we get the MNer on this thread who sucked on her dentist's finger? That's one of my all-time faves!

I have a silent embarrassing interaction. Standing at a concert with my now ex partner. I took my partners hand for the duration of the headliners gig and at the end turned round to speak to him only to find he was beside me not behind me. I had held a strangers hand all the way through the gig. When I apologised and explained the guy sounded quite hurt and said it had been really lovely 😳😬 and thanked me.

DH ( when I was working ) once went to a junior school parents' evening alone with Ds. he sat down with DS & she knew who Ds was but , trying to be be helpful so she did not have to remember his name DH said "You can call me Daddy" - 20 years later he has not got over it

Wonderful

I ended a text to a huge huge boss with xxx was mortified

Told myself I was never ending texts to anyone with a x anymore so I wouldn’t make the mistake again

My mother took it as a personal insult and didn’t speak to me for a week 😂

I blew my boss a kiss goodbye on teams last week. What the actual fuck ! He pissed himself laughing at me.

I was at work one day and found myself counting out load as I passed presentation folders around the table. My dc were quite small and I usually counted plates as I put them in the cupboard etc.

Ex DP spoke English as his second language. He used to work as a delivery driver for a pizza restaurant and one night got into a heated argument with a drunk man outside the restaurant. The man started getting physical so what ex DP MEANT to say was "I'm going in to change out of my work uniform and when I come back I'm going to fuck you up", but what he actually said was "I'm going in to take off my clothes and when I come back I'm going to fuck you". He then stomped off inside to change and came back out to find the aggressive man had mysteriously vanished.

My dh is a mechanic. I just told him. He said he'd of called back and said love you too just for the giggles.

If it makes you feel better I just accepted a pizza delivery, they said enjoy it, I said, thanks you too 😩😩😩

Haha brilliant thread.

It reminds me of the time that I phoned my hairdresser and asked for a cut and blow
Job

First week back at work after maternity leave and helpfully asked my colleagues if they would like milkies in their tea

@SpikeyFloof 🤣

Brilliant thread
Am sitting here alone, laughing out loud
Love you all xx

I once misheard an elderly customer telling me she wanted "new legs" and directed her to the counter where the "durex" was stocked

Never. Lived. It. Down. 😂😂😂😂

I was finishing being on the phone to my brother as I got on a bus, instead of asking the driver for a ticket I said 'okay bro speak soon bye' my brother was in stitches as he heard the driver laugh extremely loudly. Oops

I said the same to my friend's father when I bumped into him at our local M&S. He's a very proper, formal gentleman and I'll never forget the look he gave me. My excuse is that it was Christmas Eve and I was feeling a bit fraught.

@heidbuttsupper

It's the adult equivalent of calling the teacher mun

Oh yes, the number of times a strapping Year 10/11 called me Mum then nearly died of embarrassment!

I used to work on a gynae ward and regularly answered my house phone by saying 'hello, gynaecology'

That put potential men off a bit
