I had booked tickets for two of my bosses to go somewhere on business and today when I went to double-check the itinerary, I saw that I BOOKED IT FOR THE WRONG MONTH!!!!!!! (non-refundable, of course )
I'm still not funny recovered, I spent the entire first half of hte morning on my phone, made my sister crazy (she works for a travel agent), cried to expedia, cried to delta, cried to my boss....bottom line, it's about $400 more expensive than it hsould have been.
gosh, what a day. I just wanna pack myelf into bed and sleep |
hey, can I add another element to the story? disclaimer: THE FOLLOWING IS COMPLETELY TRUE
as I was relating this HYSTERICAL story to my sisters and mom yesterday, I get a call from my boss. he's looking over his new itinerary, and he sees that I booked his ticket UNDER MY OWN NAME. I swear, I wanted to just fold myslef into the fetal position and stay on the floor....but luckily, my sister was there and she called jet blue and this is what they said, and I quote "I relayed the panic in your voice to my supervisor and she's decided to do it for you just this once"
let's just suffice it to say, I am NOT going to be booking tickets for my boss anymore (or anyone for that matter!)

I needed to take them to the dr for their 1 month check so after abt an hr we finally left I got 1/2 way to his office only to realize there was nothing on my head!!! I pulled dd size preemie strechy and attempted to wrap it around my head and sped home.. of course hitting every red light.. ppl were giving me funny looks as to why there was a strechy on my head |
OMG I did the same thing...
After having my second it took us FOREVER to get the kids ready in the morning, my husband went out with the kids and I came out a minute later. He started motioning to me, with this look of shock on his face. I had no idea what he was trying to say. It took him a minute to verbalize it. You are not wearing anything on your head, go back in nowwwwwwww. Thank god I didn't get as far as you but it was pretty nuts!

Yes, it's called pregnancy brain (or at least, that's what I call it)!

a couple months ago my boss was at a show (business). a woman "Tricia" placed an order with him. the order was worth well over $3,000. When it came to shipping it out the boss asked me to call her and ask for a credit card. I kept on getting blown off by the secretaries. finally I spoke to her and she asked me to send her a copy of the invoice before giving her card info. (she wasn't able to get terms) when she saw how much it cost, she called up my boss and started badmouthing me!!! saying I was rude and horrible to her girls and she wants to cancel her order!!
my boss told me to call and apologize. I did and got yelled at! then I sent her a very nice email where I kept on saying I was sorry and didn't mean to be rude (even thought I wasn't!!). she finally called back and said she wants us to keep it till next month. we did. when the next month came we sent her a fax with a copy of the bill and a credit card request. she pushed it off for another month! this went on for about 5 months till she finally just canceled!! till today I'm always afraid to screw up cuz my boss will just bring up the "Tricia story"...

Then it's called mommy brain - I blame everything on that! Seriously, I was nothing like this before I had kids...

The most embarrassing thing I had was (drumroll, please) meeting my sister at the mikva! I could not get to myself for a while after and avoided her like the plague. Oh well, guess we're both Jewish women

My losing the sheitel story: Mine got caught on the garment hook in a cab and the cabbie had no idea why I was all fumbling and jlustered.
My shot elastic story: I just ran behind a tree, let them drop and walked away quickly.
I am the best person in the world at commenting on people just as they qioetly come up behind me.
My winner: I was arguing a point of ethics in halacha with a good friend, She was doing something that I thought was unethical. She said why don't I cross the street and ask the rav. We were screaming by now and I told her that the rav is personally involved because I know that he did the same thing as I saw it with my own eyes. And I made sure to say clearly how this reflects on the rav. That night in shul the rav pulled my ex over and said, "The next time your wife has something to say can you ask her to say it to me herself instead of screaming it by the neighbors". Is there a bury yourself smiley?

I was walking out of the house with 2 of my kids last week and a low hanging branch over my door pulled off my hat. I quickly ran into the house and thankfully, noone saw me. I would have been done for if a certain neighbor's child would have seen.....Luckily, it was at about 9:00 am and all the neighborhood kids were in school.
My kids and I had a good laugh over it.
Also, many years ago my slip fell down as I was walking around in Yerushalayim. That was pretty embarassing.
