To have done the most embarrassing thing ever

[faceonfire]

Happened about an hour ago and I think I’ll need to go home and never come back to the office again

I work with a very very very handsome man. He was on the phone in the office this morning trying to sort out someone to come and fix his boiler.

He happened to say his postcode and me being the creepy wee lady I am put it into maps on my phone to see where he lived

For some reason (and I still don’t know why) my phone blared

STARTING ROUTE FROM current location TO handsome man’s postcode

I was 6 feet away in a quiet office. He turned to look and I couldn’t even look up for wanting the ground to swallow me whole.

How do I come back from this? 😂

Please someone else tell me you’ve done something equally as embarrassing

that's awful and yet so funny.

I'm dying for you

Style it out. It's not your fault your phone accidentally had voice dictation on and HE WAS LOUD is it?

Fucking brilliant

And deffo the sort of thing that happens to me

I'd syle it out and say his voice activated it?

Style it out. Siri must have picked him up saying his postcode. Really must remember to lock your phone before you put it in your bag...

Hilarious! But yes I'd want to run away too!

Oh wow. That’s incredible and there is no way out other than to leave immediately and never return! Just. Wow. I’m so sorry 🤣🤣🤣

Oh god

Blame the phone be vague and say no idea how it did that

You could say that you typed his postcode by accident as he said right as you were typing a similar postcode in.

You were typing to find a route from somewhere and as he was speaking, you accidentally put what you heard (his postcode) in instead of the one you were supposed to??? Maybe????

This! And only this.

If he looks at you again, contrive to look offended that he controlled your phone! Bloody men! How dare he comandeer your phone like that?!?!?!?!

😂😂😂😂 years ago I was texting (yes, texting no WhatsApp back then 😳) my friend about this boy I really liked and accidentally sent it to him. A few days later I seen him and he asked me if I had something to tell him and I said no and left it at that 😂

Amazing! Definitely blame Siri!

I don't often laugh out loud, but that gave me a real belly laugh

Not v helpful response, sorry

I like the idea of blaming Siri, although I think that would only be convincing if you'd thought of it immediately

Could you say you know a boiler repair man and you were just seeing if he covered his area before suggesting him? Such a shame it turns out he doesn't

Why did you do that? That's so weird!

I would totally have done this.

Many embarrassing stories on MN are really not that much but yours is really good. Well done, OP!

I would have also tried to style it out by saying you put the wrong postcode in as you heard his voice.

Btw, what does his house look like?

That thing on Google maps is needlessly LOUD. Always makes me jump.

You might as well go on streetview and have a virtual drive around his neighbourhood now.

Have you never had a nose to see where someone lived?

That’s brilliant!! Absolutely, top form brilliant!!

You’ve made my day brighter!

Gold.
