Before the padenmic, I (32F) was travelling extensively for work as I worked in international development. As part of a work perk, I get to stay in some nice hotels with pools once in a while, so I would always bring my glorious turquoise bikini to enjoy the amenities.
On my last trip before the pandemic in 2019, I left my bikini at the hotel as I am often very forgetful (apologies to all hotel staff having to clean up after idiots like me). Luckily a work friend was passing by the same city the following week. He picked up my bikini from the hotel and planned to bring it the office (thanks to local colleagues helping coordinate this pick-up).
Because we travel so often for work, he and I never ended up overlapping at the office until the pandemic hit. I assumed he lost my bikini in transit (RIP bikini) as he insisted he returned it to me.
Flash forward, it is 2022, I get a panicked call from my friend. Apparently as he and his wife moved houses, she found my my turquoise bikini. She immediately assumed the worst and went to stay with her in-laws. My friend took a good week to recall how the bikini ended up in his possession, and a few awkward phone calls with several colleagues later, he realised it was my bikini. A few apologies and explanations later, his wife returned home. Phew.
TL/DR: TIFU when I almost caused my good friends grief and potentially a divorce by leaving my bikini at a hotel after a work trip.
