AIBU to think that I have to quit my job over this typo?

[Trills]

I sent out an email to tens of thousands of people with "bring" instead of "being".

Should I quit in shame?

Live AIBU on stage?? Good grief.

It does sound rather like a mumsnet section! ( sneaky advertising ;))

Hmm

Not me, but someone on here once sent a work email ending 'Kind retards'. They worked in an area involving people with learning differences...

I've come close many times to saying I knew people were very busty instead of busy.

I've emailed 'Shitley' and 'Cunthia' by mistake. Obviously what I'm used to typing

Dd's school sent out a leaflet explaining they were collecting money for dead children. Should have been "deaf" children.

This is the second time in two days I've seen this advert shared here.

Wasn't there a media request for this that got torn to shreds?

Mentioned a 'stiff member' instead of staff member.

I once emailed a lot of very senior people in the NHS about 'pubic health initiatives'.

I was the author of a set of minutes of meetings of the board of a government agency which published them on their website and had them sent to the relevant Minister with 'Matters Arsing' in them. My boss was delighted, not. Funny though.

stiff member

Matters Arsing

Pubic/public is an absolute classic. I do editorial work and that's always the first quick check I do.

I saw a presentation with an unfortunate typo. Wrexham was Rectum.

I don't understand did you send it as you state in your OP or were you sent it as stated later in the thread?

Not sure funny typos was the point of this post at all

(I do love matters arsing and stiff member, though!)

I know someone who only realised when they were leaving their job that the template they used for every client email ended with 'apologies for the incontinence caused' . They were there....5,6? years when they were leaving.

I typed up formal board papers with an item, Matters Arsing. No one noticed until the meeting!

I've signed business emails as best retards on several occasions

I am now forever grateful to Google for introducing their stop send feature on emails to Gmail meaning I have 30 seconds to save the day !

One of my colleague updated a full system with a manual upload so tens of thousands of accounts and he misspelled 'accounts' he wrote 'acunts'. This meant thousands of lines of swearing in a client report.

Don't worry as the general manager, I once emailed 92 elderly volunteers and asked if anyone was up for doing a Friday shit instead of shift

Hi all, we know this is very similar to another thread just deleted but Trills has been with us for a long time so this catastrophic error is sadly likely to be true...

Our local paper once had an ad that hadn't been proofread.

It was for a business offering "quality titted kitchens"

at incontinence caused. That is hilarious.

I don't have any examples of funny words used in emails but a pa to one of our directors had to hand in her resignation because she sent nude pics of Brad Pitt to all the senior management of a number of organisations instead of a personal group she had.

At least you didn't do a typo as bad as this one
