TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by not remembering my interviewers name

I feel so dumb. Went into a job interview, but I guess my head wasn't totally in it. I had just gotten fired that week so I was a little depressed. On top of that, I wasn't even totally sure I wanted to be with this new company because it had awful reviews from former employees, but I had to see for myself. Got to the building a few minutes early and all the lights are off except one person's office because they don't work past 12 on Fridays. They didn't introduce themselves on Indeed, so I wasn't sure who I was going to meet. I see the guy sitting in his office, and he sees me, so he pokes his head out, I introduce myself and say I'm here for the interview. He tells me his name, which I immediately forget, and invites me into his office. We go over my resume, he tells me a little bit about the company and the role I applied for. After like 10 minutes, he says "ok, looks good. Can you come back next week for a working interview? To which I agree, but at this point I'm not entirely sure what I'd be doing in this role, and he doesn't ask if I have any questions. So it's now awkward because I don't know if I'm supposed to just stand up, or is he gonna say anything to conclude this interview. He says something like "ok great" and so I stand up and shake his hand(he's still seated) and say I look forward to it. I wanted to say thanks for your time, [guys name], but I forgot his name. So stupid me ACTUALLY ASKS HIM "I'm so sorry, what was your name again?" And he tells me. I'm like great thanks again and then he stands up to walk me out and asks if I want a tour of the lab. We do that, and then I leave. I am so embarrassed, but also his lack of professionalism and confirmation of the reviews I saw, I'm not too bummed. I skipped the working interview without telling them I'm not coming. I get a message on indeed asking if I forgot about the working interview. Ignored the message. I feel bad, but also I could tell the company was in a rough spot and they were desperate so I was just so turned off by everything. I justify it by saying If the roles were reversed and I was interviewing that guy, He absolutely failed. And a lot of companies won't even tell you they aren't going to hire you if your interview didn't go well, so that's what I did

TL;DR: I forgot my interviewers name during the interview. He asked if I wanted to come back for a working interview. I said yes and as I was walking out, I actually asked him was his name was again. He told me, we went out separate ways and then I ghosted them, not coming back for a second interview.

Can y'all tell me how shitty or not shitty I am? I'm kind of autistic.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
