TIFU by showing my boss my entire, bare ass

This afternoon, my coworker was startled by the discovery of a very large, dead bug in a bucket of sanitizer. I actually rather enjoy insects, and while everyone else was revolted, I found the big fellow quite fascinating. I couldn't recall having ever seen this type of bug before, and I took a quick picture before disposing of it so I could identify it using Google Lens (it was a huge fishfly, for anyone curious).

My boss later asked if I'd happened to take a picture. He hadn't gotten a good look at it, himself, and he was curious to see it and get an ID. We don't take too kindly to bugs where I work, and I suspect he was interested in knowing if this large, winged intruder might be the first sign of an impending issue. While he stood looking over my shoulder, I opened my gallery to show him the picture I'd taken.

I'm sure that anyone can take a decent guess as to what sort of thing happened next, based on the title. But we're going to pause and rewind a bit for proper context. You see, this morning, my coworkers had been discussing our previous boss. She was a loud, pushy, and very unprofessional woman (not that I work in a particularly professional environment to begin with). She had a regular habit of slapping our asses, among other rather inappropriate behavior. This was the topic of conversation between my coworkers. One girl asked a more recent hire if she'd ever been shown the infamous photo of a bruise that our old boss had left on my butt cheek after an especially aggressive slap, and she said she hadn't. Of course, I showed her the picture. It's heavily cropped, but still very much a clear picture of my bottom.

Obviously, you know what happened next. I, a young woman, opened my gallery in front of my 65-year-old boss. What came up was not the big, creepy bug picture. Instead, we were both suddenly confronted with an alarmingly clear image of my full, bare ass adorned with a lovely hand-shaped bruise. I immediately blurted out, "I'M SO SORRY, [NAME]!" He went bright red, spun around, and shouted, "NEVER MIND!" And he rushed to the back office. I crumpled to the floor in tears of unstoppable laughter, absolutely mortified. We did not make eye contact for the remaining 30 minutes of my shift. I might need to transfer to a new location.

TL;DR: Tried to show my boss a picture of a bug. Showed him a nude, instead.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...
