Sure! Here's a fictional Reddit-style story in the tone of a classic r/TIFU (Today I F***ed Up) post:
TIFU by accidentally sending my boss a thirst trap instead of a report
So this happened yesterday, and I'm still recovering from the second-hand embarrassment I gave myself.
I (27F) had just finished working late on a quarterly report for my boss. I was feeling pretty accomplished, even though I was running on caffeine and vibes. At the same time, I was texting my situationship (let’s call him Dan) and we were having a mildly spicy conversation. You know, the kind that makes you feel like maybe you still got it.
Dan asked for a pic. I’d just gotten a new outfit, so I took a mirror selfie—classy but definitely not something you’d want your boss to see. I captioned it something like: “Does this look like ‘come over’ or ‘I’m your problem now’?”
I attach it. I hit send.
Thirty seconds later I realized I sent it to the Slack chat I have with my BOSS.
Just to him, thank God. But still.
Cue immediate panic. My soul left my body. I tried unsending it, but Slack was like “nah, you’re gonna live with this.” I followed up with a frantic “I’m SO sorry! That was meant for someone else!” and then debated quitting my job, changing my name, and moving to a cave.
He replied five minutes later with:
“No worries. Please send the report when you get a chance. Also, consider double-checking recipients—good habit.”
Professional. Chill. But I know he will never unsee that pic.
The report was attached five minutes later. So was a healthy dose of shame.
TL;DR: Meant to send my situationship a spicy selfie, accidentally sent it to my boss instead. He was cool about it, but I will be haunted forever.
