So I'm at work yesterday and it's about 4:30. I had to take an early lunch to cover phones for people who were leaving in the afternoon for appointments. I was starting to get a bit hungry so I decide to make some microwave popcorn. I put in the microwave in the kitchen for 3 minutes, came back to my desk b/c the phone was ringing. The caller needed to speak to the director who was in a meeing. It was very urgent. So I went to get him and when I came back, smoke was billowing from the kitchen. My popcorn had caught on fire. So I had to take it out of the microwave, put it in the sick and douse it with water. I made the necessary calls (i.e. security, buiding maintence, call centre, etc) and then just prayed to god that the sprinkler system didn't go off.
It didn't
So I come in this morning and most of the building which is 13 floors smells like burnt popcorn. It's actually quite revolting and I don't think that they're is a person in this building that doesn't know that it was me.
Ryan, I'm going to lose 10 pds because I won't eat popcorn ever again. oh the comments.
(This isn't the first time this has happened. For those who want to know ask about the CN Tower story ;)
So, if you have any embarrassing stories, please share so we can all have a good laugh |

| i was at a house party one time and a bunch of people crashed on this kids basement floor. well sometime in the middle of the night my one friend had to go to the bathroom. so he tryed walking up the stairs in the dark and was so drunk that he fell down them after he couldnt open the door. then he himself while laying on the ground. we found him like that in the morning. not only did he have to clean his own up, but he had to go to the hospitol to get three staples in his head from his fall. |

OK well I worked in the Guest Services Department (elevators, directing guest, etc) last year and this particular day I was working in the basement in the attractions area with the similator rides. There is this smoke machine down there for effects and we always used to fool around with it. Well one day they installed a new one and it had quite a bit of kick to it, so we were having a lot of fun until we realized that all the smoke was filtering into the room filled with patrons. It didnt' take too long for the alarm to go off. During alarms at the CN Tower, they dont' start a full out evacuation but rather stop elevating guests and only bring those down who are waiting to come down. So technically it's not an evacuation but really in essence that's what were doing. By the time they cleard it up, and the fire department had left, they're were no guests left at the top. Oh well, no one was hurt and it wasn't all our fault.
I was a good employee anyway |

This is not me but bout a guy i worked with,
I work at a car dealership as a salesperson, one of my colleagues repeatedly embarrasses himself
once he showed up to work with a q-tip hanging out of his ear ( he was cleaning his ears when the phone rang he answered itand forgot the qtip in his ear, he then drove from Hamilton to mississauga with it hanging out his ear and didnt notice until he got into the meeting of bout 30 sales guys!
Another time he went to the bathroom for a #2, when he came out a long piece of toilet paper got stuck under his belt at his back side and he went outside to talk to a customer with a 3-4foot piece of TP draggin behind him.
last but not least he showed up at work one morning wearing one dress shoe that was black and on the other foot it was a brown shoe, now i do this with socks once in a while, but shoes! c'mon! :) |

I worked at the cn tower...doing elevators and hosting an stuff...does it still go 22km/h, or 15 m/h, taking approximately 58 seconds to get to the top, 61 to the restaurant??? (which btw is 116 stories high)? |

hrmm too many to count.. makes me quite humble i suppose
-first time i was with a girl.. spent the night @ her place.. my parents got worried and called EVERY single one of my friends guys and girls..@ 5am.. woke up the entire neighbourhood.. the next day everybody knew what was goin on
-i dropped a girl on her butt and fell on top of her in the middle of the side walk when she jumped on me and i was "suppose" to catch her.. in Ibiza no less.... actually this ones pretty funny!
-drank so much one time @ ryanM's house then went to Phoenix night club.. ended up puking at the bathroom.. and basically sitting on the floor of the bathroom in a sort of upright fetal position. Till ryanM basically carried me back to his place. Though it was only payback cuzz he owed me for cleanup @ Barcelona!! haha..
-drank so much in dallas a few years back.. i puked all over my friends bathroom.. some of it ended up on the ceiling.. i have NO idea how..
-was in dallas when i was 20, and seeing this 25 yr old.. drinking age is 21 so I couldnt get into bars !! She was SO understanding though! theres another funnier more embaressing story with this girl.. but its too long to type out!
-anyways i'm sure theres more.. i've just blocked them out hah! |

Hmmmm most embarassing things EVER to happen to me:
#1
Back in gr 10 in Saint Robs, had a massive massive crush on this one guy and was always trying to make sure he looked at me. Well sure enough eventually he noticed me and wrote me a letter asking me out. We had our class in those trailer things (which btw are still there) cuz there weren't enough classrooms in the school. So he gives me the letter at the end of class and i start reading it on the way back into school and walk RIGHT into the friggin stop sign that was on the sidewalk. Of course he was watching. And of course my friend who was walking with me at the time couldn't stop laughing.
Meh, he went out with me anyways :tongue2
#2
Also @ St Robs (man that school was bad luck). Top of the stairs, about to go down and someone says: "LAURYN". I turn around to see who's calling me... and like a dumbass keep walking. Fell head first down the stairs. Luckily nothing was broken... But i would gladly have died right then.
Luckily it didn't go round the school... loconet never even heard about it! Thank god... :D |
