TIFU Letting my work stress get to me and subsequently getting turned into a human snow globe

So at the end of week I had a small but cold screwup and I figured maybe the internet could laugh with me at my icy misery. I’ll start with saying I have been so obnoxiously stressed at work. With the winter weather, I haven’t been able to be at work to accomplish tasks I need to and have had to do what I can from home. This has set me behind about 3 weeks on my tasks and with conferences coming up I’ve been about two breaths from just screaming into the distance. Yesterday I had a rather large item in my room at work that I could not stand being in my room any longer, I decided to take it out to the shed and get it out if the way and noticed the already horrible door handle on the shed that barely unlocks seemed frozen. But the door was unlocked anyways so I plopped the item down and went about my way cause I had a LOT to do.

Now normally the shed at work stays locked. I was confused about why it wasn’t so I did the only sensible thing by locking it, as I figured I probably wouldn’t be back out to the shed till the Earth thaws. When I went back inside I went into another room to ask a coworker a question and accidentally interrupted their meeting, I felt so bad but I made up for it by offering to take their same large items out to the shed at the end of the day as I knew it’d take a lot off their plate.

I spent the rest of the day scrambling around getting a mountain if tasks done to the point where I was so stressed I could hardly stay focused. When I went to take my coworkers stuff to the shed, a different coworker offered to help me so I stubbornly agreed to help and went out only to find that the shed lock door was frozen which I had clearly already observed earlier. I spent a good 2-3 minutes in the cold trying to get the door to unlock to the point where I got mad and slammed the key into the lock several times. This was one of those moments where It was “ great just one more thing to stress me out”,resulting in the door unlocking and opening while an avalanche of snow from the roof of the shed also fell off the roof all over top of me down my sweatshirt and inside all of my clothes.

Normally I would have been mad about this but my coworker and I had a great laugh about it and I haven’t stopped laughing since. It was a good reminder to not let work stress affect life so much and to not always take life so seriously.

TLDR: I locked the shed door at work when I knew I shouldnt have and got mad at the door slamming the key into the lock because I was stressed with work resulting in me getting buried in snow

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. ...
