TIFU by removing my earring too early

TIFU by hooking up with a guy at a bar and discovering he's my new coworker Monday morning

This happened today and I'm typing this from the work bathroom because I can't face going back to my desk.

I (21F) started at a marketing agency three weeks ago. First real job after graduating, been trying SO hard to seem professional. That lasted exactly 18 days.

Friday night my girls drag me out to celebrate my first paycheck. We end up at this bar downtown. I'm two espresso martinis in and this guy comes up - tall, dark hair, great smile. We start talking and there's instant chemistry. He mentioned he works in marketing too and I was like oh cool same but we did NOT elaborate further. We were not there to network.

One thing led to another. I went back to his place. I'll spare you the details but things were said that should never be repeated. Snuck out Saturday morning doing the walk of shame in last night's heels feeling like a legend. No numbers exchanged. No last names. No instagrams. Perfect one night story. Chapter closed.

WRONG.

Monday morning I walk in, coffee in hand, nice blouse on. My manager says come meet our new team member. I turn the corner and there he is. Same guy. Sitting at the desk DIAGONAL FROM MINE. Four meters from where I sit eight hours a day.

Our eyes meet. His coffee freezes halfway to his mouth. My soul leaves my body.

Manager goes "this is Jake, he just moved here - Jake this is-" and he goes "...hi" and I go "...hi" and my manager asks "oh do you two know each other?" and he says "no" while I say "not really" at the same time which is basically screaming YES WE DO.

It gets worse. Team meeting at 11. I'm sitting across from him discussing Q2 strategy while my brain is doing flashbacks like a war movie. Manager says "I think you two would work great together on the Instagram campaign" and I almost choked.

He sent me a Slack at lunch: "so... marketing huh 😅" I replied "small world" and came straight to this bathroom.

My best friend says this is either the start of a romcom or an HR disaster with literally no in between.

TL;DR: Hooked up with a random bar guy Friday night. Monday morning he's the new hire sitting four meters from my desk. Now I have to professionally collaborate with a man who has seen me very unprofessionally. Typing this from the work bathroom.

TIFU by not disabling an option in Windows that seemingly made my PC stutter for the last 3 years

I bought a pretty good PC in 2019 (2300 € of goodness) but, a few months after I installed it, the PC started to have, at random, small freeze for like a second, every 10 to 50 min for seemingly no reason. I did tons of benchmark, pretty much read every posts about "my PC is stuttering/freezing help meee" on the internet, called the After Sale number from where I bought the PC. Removing and putting the GPU back helped for a few weeks, but then back to square one. Checked the state of my disks, the ventirad, everything ! Restarting the PC made the stuttering stop for like 1 or 2 hours that's it. I had GPU-Z and CPUID monitor on all the time to check if anything happened, and weirdly enough, having those monitoring program open made the stuttering way weaker ! Drove me absolutely crazy. Then one or two weeks ago I saw a post on r/buildapc about Fast Startup option in Windows and how it was a good idea to disable it... So I did. Since then, nothing. No stuttering, no f...

TIFU while being spicy with my Gf

I 26M have a gf 22f. We enjoy sex with each other but wanted to spice it up as she wanted to try something new and I was all for it. She had me order cuffs, a blindfold, and a vibrating plug which I thought would be fun to try. I let her know when they arrived and a few days after they arrived she came over and we got ready. She had me out the cuffs on her and blind fold first before I did anything else, followed by getting the plug ready. I put what I thought was a good amount of lube on it as one does. Well sadly when I slowly put the plug in, it immediately went all the way in as off it was just sucked in followed by a loud “AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHGHHHHH” which my dumbass at first thought “Oh she must really like it!” Until i realized it was from pain. I started panicking for a second then realized she was in pain, blind folded, and handcuffed. When I asked if she wanted me to take them off she said no and just sat there for about another 5 minutes. It didn’t completely ruin our spicey t...

TIFU by not getting visual confirmation on the lube he was using

Obligatory not today, but I was talking with my ex (the counterpart in this story) and he said he was surprised I hadn’t written this post yet, and truthfully, he’s right. So I (30 at the time, F) and my boyfriend (29 at the time, M) had been dating for a few months and were honestly having a blast. Maybe too much fun. A lot of late nights out. Both very spontaneous people with a lot of social and sexual energy when together, the latter being an important component of this story. One night we had decided to go to one of our neighborhood spots and have a few drinks before heading back to his place. In our city there’s this local artist that creates these awesome vending machines full of unique shit, some of it’s as simple as a pair of earrings or a bag of tiny ducks, but the fun ones are these mystery packages. I always liked choosing the spirit animal ones cause those contain a tiny toy animal and a card with some relatively snarky description of why your lazy like a shark or whateve...
