TIFU by sitting where management and HR is sitting.

I'm new at a job and sat somewhere on the first day to sit with my new team where they put me on a flex space. Then I sat there the next 7 days, I scooted 1 place because of HR and then another place. I was just doing my work but also sat opposite the director of the company. I didn't say anything to him besides good morning and good evening and put on music with earphones to not listen in to anything. Then there was a standard meeting with HR for new personell. She was being really cold to me and nice to the other person. She then told me that I drove her from her place and asked me what I was doing. I had no idea this was going on. I was also a bit informal with my new manager (dumb joke) so he was also a bit cold. I really hate this situation. I am going to sit somewhere else and act professional and if nothing happened. In 5 workdays I have my first month evaluation so I hope with my corrections I can repare the damage. Just say "better not sit there please" but they told me several times you can sit anywhere except on the directors spot.

TL;DR Without thinking sat on flex places where normally HR and management sat and got the cold shoulder.

Update: Everybody thanks for the kind words and advice. I was already thinking about quitting this weekend because this was my worst start ever. I also haven't worked in a while because of a burnout and this job means a lot to me to get back on track.

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 making chili and having an itch

I’ve been trying to expand my culinary horizons and am thinking about enrolling in culinary school to follow a passion instead of my daily slog. I picked out some recipes and decided to try and kick up chili a little bit, adding some extra chiles and hobaneros. I finished my prep during my lunch break and cleaned up. Fast forward about two hours, my boy bits had began to itch a little, and without thinking I reached in to itch the little guy and suddenly the fires of hell were unleashed upon an extra sausage today. As the heat rises I scramble to think of ways to soothe my flaming frankfurter. First thought was, “Milk helps right?” So I wrapped in a cloth soaked in what I was hoping to be delightful dairy relief but instead only delayed the burn until the air touched it again. As I unwrap the milk the sides head are now a deep shade of purple that started to have me concerned. In a clutch I call out to my google home in search of some great wisdom on how to relieve the burn. “Mar...
