'My colleague tried to kiss me': Most embarrassing workplace moments

Greg from Cambridge said: I once had a customer email me saying that he was sorry to hear I had gone deaf and that he hoped I would make a speedy recovery. I had to explain to him that I was born deaf – he was so embarrassed!

Emily from Bristol said: One of my colleagues had an affair with one of the senior managers. We all knew it was going on and it made everyone in the office feel very uncomfortable. They were eventually caught red-handed, but still continued to deny it!

Sam from Cornwall said: During my lunch break, I was trying on some new underwear and decided to send a picture to my wife as a joke. It was only when I received a reply from my manager that I realised I’d hit the wrong number! It took a lot to go back to work that day.  

Amy from Oxford said: I was doing an impression of my very serious boss without realising that he was behind me. It’s safe to say he didn’t see the funny side and pulled me up about it in front of the whole office. I was humiliated and left the company soon after.
