I just dozed off at work.. just leaned back in my nice comfy chair, closed my eyes for a minute, and completely zonked out. (Auditing firewall logs gets boring sometimes!) The embarrassing part is that I have a cold.. and I woke myself up.. by snoring! The two other people in the room were just kind of looking at me funny... If my face is half as red as it feels, then I'm glad we turn the lights off at night in here...
The worst part is that I must have been snoring for a while, because the other people had turned up the volume on the DVD they were watching. Now that I'm awake, I can't believe the volume alone didn't wake me up.
Okay, so not my most embarrassing moment, but probably the most embarrassing thing I've ever done in a professional environment. Please, people, share some "embarrassing moment" stories to make me feel better!

I once got out of a public swimming pool and my trunks fell. This was about 8 years ago.
Feel better yet?

Once in fourth grade I shaped some aluminum foil to fit into a wall outlet, then jammed it in while walking back from lunch. Had I not shaped that third prong I'd probably be one crispy critter right now.

Sounds like you need a richard simmons wake up desktop! Every 10 seconds it jumps out and says:
"Wake up! It is time to watch me!"
The picture alone should wake you up.

Last summer I competed at the Canadian Tae Kwon Do Junior Nationals in Toronto and I lost very badly in a fight. Ok so that isn't that embarrassing but if it helps afterwards we were driving back and there was a shoe on the road. My Dad and my friend made fun of me for ages about the stupid shoe. They were making up a story that I ran all the way there and lost my shoe cause I was supposedly so scared of the fighter I was against.

DAVE!
Well....my story is embarassing not because I did something, but because of what my friend did. I was at a function with him..I say function becuase it was sort of a formal thing. It was held at a some persons house, and everything is going fine. He tries to impress a girl by telling the only type of jokes he knows. He does it in a big room in front of alot of people. Anyway they are racial jokes aimed at black people. After 5-10 minutes of joke telling some lady walks out of the room. Her husband(owner of the house) walks up to my friend and said "that's my wife, and she is half black"....doh!
I tried not to socialize with him for the rest of the time while we were there.

Hmm embarrassing things I've done? Dunno I don't get easily embarrased. But I can tell you about how what I think I'm saying and what people hear don't always coincide. It was in an 8th grade English class and the class was a good natured bunch (we had been in the same classes together in 7th grade too, 'Team Learning' they called it) and we joked and teased each other alot. Nothing really cruel (for some reason the entire 'team' was composed of those students who got the better grades and such, a gateway to high school cliques I guess) Anyways this one day the entire class was teasing this one girl who was trying her best to defend herself when I guess it finally got to be too much for her, 'Why do you always make fun of me?' she asked on the verge of tears to which I replied, in my infinite wisdom 'Because you're easy.' What I meant to say, and what I had actually believed I said, was 'Because you're an easy target'. Well it didn't go over to well and I was sent to the principal (who, of course, happened to be this girl's father). Luckily he realised I'm a moron and sent me back to class.

Ah, just thought of another, this one is not mine (i was just holding the camera, I'll get to that in a minute). I'm part of a 'youth career exploration program'. Basically we learn about law enforcement (maybe you've heard of the Police Explorers/Cadets) and part of what we do is make training videos for the neighborhood watch groups and such (we're the slave labor force of the WWPD). One of the scenarios was one in which a team of cadets is extracting an armed felon from a building. The female cadet was surprised by a second unknown assailant coming out of a window. She excitedly exclaimed, 'Don't move or I'll blow you!' After which the other cadet immediately began to dance. We cut that one from the video.

One time when i was working at the grocery store somebody told me to get the mop and clean up some crap up near the registers. Well i was working fast and all and didn't fill up the mop bucket very much. So when i went to wring out the mop with the little device on top of the bucket, i proceded to spill the contents of the mop water all over the floor in the front of the store. My manager just kinda looked at me with that *what a dumbass* look on his face before he called for the old zamboni to clean it up.

English class this year we were reading a story in class and I let a fart slip. Everyone stared at me and one kid yelled my name. there was only about 3 boys in the class counting myself so they were the only ones that thought it was funny. The girls all stared and probally thought I was gross. But one girl laughed. I cant believe I let it slip...

I thought of another one. I was in the shoe store getting new shoes and I saw a black lady buying shoes with her son. I was reading her shirt because it looked intresting (It said "Too Blessed To Be Stressed" lol) and all of the sudden she yells DO NOT LOOK AT WOMENS CHESTS ITS A NASTY HABBIT! I was so embarassed said I dident and just sort of walked away to another section of the store. Kind of funny now..

nice cheese, i never heard about that one heheh.

Just out of curiosity how old were you at the time you were staring at that womans shirt in the mall. I suppose you were probably not in your late teens cause her reaction toward you doing so didn't seem all that bad compared to how a lot of people would react.
Anyway, the next time you do something like that, maybe it would be best to make sure they aren't watching. Those are pretty funny stories though.
