Accidental WhatsApp chat

I’ve been flitting all day between a chat group with DH, a colleague and our work chat.
I’ve alluded to DH that sex is on the cards tonight when he finishes his late shift. We’ve been flirting back and to all afternoon but I’ve accidentally sent one of the convos to my colleague. It was a simple statement but I now look like a needy idiot.
My colleague is a sixty year old, happily married man and I have quickly deleted the message. Not sure he read it but has replied “ No worries , mate”.
I need to resign, don’t I? 😩

This might be a bit outing but a few years ago, I sent a WhatsApp to my work group chat instead of my best friend. It was around Christmas time and I was so tired after working ridiculous hours. I had just woken up and had a look at my shift which told me all the appointments I had for the day (I worked in the beauty industry at the time for a well known company). It ended up looking like a bstard of a day so I went off on one to my friend telling her how much I hated my job, my boss was a wanker etc, but I ended up sending the message to not only my boss but her boss and everyone else really high up. I was removed from the chat straight away and never went back 🤣🤣🤣. I still cringe when I think about it.

Nightmare! Could have been worse - one mum at school sent our mums' class chat a naked selfie meant for her husband. I quickly text her and told her how to delete it!
Not much good if it goes into people's camera roll 😂😂

Oh my God. I have nightmares about doing something like that. One of my workmates uploaded a video of her drunkenly singing Adele songs to the work Whataspp group and didn't realise until the following day, after virtually all of us had seen her in action. That was funny though, not career ending.

I once accidentally called my dad (phone left on bed) and left him a 12 minute voicemail of the sound of me and my boyfriend having sex.

I realised after and sent him a text that said DO NOT LISTEN TO YOUR VOICEMAIL

He said OK but why, I said you don't want to know, he said you're right I don't. 🤣

I got a very flirty suggestive text from my mates 19 year old son a few years ago... (j would have been 38)... laughed and replied that very flattered though I was I knew he'd meant it for someone else...

Apparently not GrinGrinp

I received a saucy text from a male work colleague telling what he was planning to do to me when he got home, only it wasn’t for me, it was for his wife - who had the same first name as me. He was a really great guy but we had no attraction to each other.

He apologised profusely and confessed to his wife what had happened (not sure why, I wasn’t exactly going to tell her) but the thing she was most annoyed about was that my number was No 1 in his phone above hers!

What was your next message going to be, after ‘I’d like you to remove my knickers’?
‘And then wipe my bum’? 😄

Myusernameisnotmyusernameno · 12/10/2021 20:01

Not a message but once my new boss overheard me telling a colleague I thought she was being a f-ing twat. I quit on the spot as I realised I couldn't take anymore of her belittling me. Her face though when she asked me 'for a word' Blush

I work in an A&E with a tannoy system so you can inform everyone of a trauma comming in or to tell someone that they have a phone call etc. Somewhere in the department .

One night, slightly over tired at about 4am I tannoyed: "Dr Smith you have a telephone call in Resus love you bye." ... I stood rooted to the spot with shame as my colleagues all pissed themselves and spent quite some time ending everything they said to me with "love you bye" Grin

My poor heart almost gave out because of a headphone wire. I was editing a sexy selfie and didn't notice my wire on the screen. The bloody thing had somehow tapped share. It went straight to WhatsApp. I sat in frozen shock watching my phone flick through my contacts and pick the worst possible person to send it to. Thankfully I snapped out of it, realised what was wrong and fixed it before he could get a glimpse but my god 😅 I only use wireless headphones now

I once sent my DH, who's a lecturer, a fairly explicit text suggesting his luck was in when he came home with regard to a BJ. I thought he'd be in class glance at his phone then get all flustered! A sort of prank, if you will. Unbeknown to me he was in his office with a female colleague (think elderly spinster type) up to his armpits in admissions paperwork. He told me later he said to his colleague'Would you read me that text Maggie? It's likely my DW wanting me to get bread on the way home'...he wouldn't go in the staff room for the rest of the academic year!

My niece last week replied in a group chat saying she doesn't like any of us.
She thought she was in a private chat.

She didn't comment anything else for a week and then carried in like nothing happened.

That has made me snort with laughter. [/quote]
You are all very welcome for the laugh, I can't take credit for Sister Mary though, I believe it originated on the inflatable Olaf parking thread and it made me honk laugh so I wheel it out whenever possible.

Lollypop701 · 12/10/2021 21:54

Inflatable Olaf thread… do tell!

Apologies for derailing, but it's such a lovely thread:

@Greencauliflowers

You know you can delete messages before they’re seen on WhatsApp?
Yeah, why didn't you do this. No need to be mortified then.

@Lollypop701

Not a text but I was running for train, thought I saw a person I knew quite well but couldn’t stop. As I say was running… so just yelled boo as I ran past. Wasn’t the person I thought it was and I think I nearly gave her and her colleagues a heart attack .. lucky I was running Tbf!
Omg 😂😂😂😂
