TIFU by falling asleep with a bin bag on my head and boobies out

So this has happened around 6 years ago but for some reason I only just remembered it - my mind maybe just wants to protect me from this cringe.

I used to work in Greggs doing a 5.30am-11.30am shift which meant I had to be up dead early. By the time I’ve finished work I was ready for a small nappy nap again before cracking on with house work and stuff.

One of these days I thought I kill 2 birds with one stone and start dying my hair before going off to sleepy land. I don’t know how other ladies do their hair but basically I shut the curtains, take my top and bra off (to prevent black dye getting on it) and whack a black binbag around my head. I’ve set an alarm for 45 minutes and gone to sleep on the sofa.

Around ~40 mins into my nap I woke up to the sound of our creaky stairs. I’ve jumped up to see wagwan and saw this builder looking geezer going down on it. He just shouted up to me saying ‘it’s all done’ and left before I could’ve even ask any questions.

I was so confused, I messaged my (now) husband immediately who told me that the landlord has messaged him the previous day that he’ll send someone out to fix the toilet that’s making a honking noise. I’m guessing the landlord must’ve given him keys too to let himself in in case we’re out.

So this poor builder guy must’ve come in, saw me half naked lying on the sofa with a bin bag on my head, somehow fixed the toilet without waking me up and tried to sneak out of the apartment but i caught him in the act.

I’m bloody cringing every time I think of this, I bet he was thinking what the hell is wrong with this girl. But he did fix the toilet that sounded like a foghorn so it’s a win.

TL;DR: fell asleep half naked with a bin bag over my head and traumatised an unsuspecting builder who just wanted to fix my toilet

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by making a joke that landed horribly

I was talking to someone and thought I was being funny, but the second the words left my mouth I knew I had messed up. It was one of those jokes that sounds fine in your head and then just dies completely in real life. Nobody laughed, the mood got awkward instantly, and I could feel my face getting hot because I knew I had just made everything weird for no reason. What made it worse is that I tried to recover from it instead of just shutting up. So then I started talking more, which only made it more obvious that I was panicking. You know that feeling when you can hear yourself getting worse while it’s happening and you still can’t stop? yeah, that was me. I kept trying to act normal, but the whole thing was already gone. After that I just wanted to disappear and pretend it never happened. I’m still thinking about it way more than I should, which somehow makes it even more embarrassing. I really should have just kept my mouth shut for once. TL;DR: I tried to be funny and the joke...
