TIFU trying to order a white chocolate mocha latte

Went to the Starbucks kiosk at my job. Told the barista I wanted a “white chocolate mocha, grande, with only 2 pumps of white chocolate”. She said “what?” I repeated that I wanted a “white chocolate mocha latte”. She put in “hot chocolate”. I noticed her error right before using Apple Pay. When I reiterated that I wanted a “white chocolate mocha” (literally said “I’m sorry, but I actually wanted a white chocolate mocha latte not a hot chocolate”) she said “you said chocolate, that’s a hot chocolate.”

Trying to make sure I was saying my order right, I repeated “no I just want a white chocolate mocha latte” while lightly tapping my hand on the counter after each word in the order name slowly. The tapping I was doing w/o thinking as I was very focused on making sure I said all 4 words correctly and in the right order (“white-tap-chocolate-tap-mocha-tap-latte-tap”) to avoid confusion. I didn’t raise my voice or did anything else that would have expressed aggression.

The barista immediately got offended at my taping. She quickly snapped at me “ok, you want a white mocha and you don’t need to do all that tapping to get what you want.” Caught off guard, I tried to say that the tapping wasn’t for her but for me but I’m sure that whatever I said wasn’t good enough and she left in a huff, asking another barista to take her spot.

I ended up being served a mocha latte (not white chocolate) and they didn’t even call out my order. Later, I looked up the drink on the Starbucks website to see if maybe I had said it wrong (which I doubted b/c I have ordered the same thing for years now) and I wasn’t wrong- it IS listed as White Chocolate Mocha Latte on their menu. Now I’m too embarrassed to go back there again- at least not for a looonnng while.

TLDR: offended a barista without meaning to while trying to order my go-to Starbucks drink b/c I started tapping to help me think.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
