If you’ve ever had a hot and cold moment as you realise you’ve done something unprofessional at work then you’re not alone. In fact, two thirds of British workers admit to having had a job-related embarrassing mishap, with men more prone to such calamities than women – 72% compared to 63%*. The research by vocational distance learning provider Home Learning College revealed a range of faux pas from the mildly awkward to the spine-chillingly inappropriate.
Top five embarrassing work mishaps (men and women)
9% - Mistakenly sending an unprofessional or bitchy email to the wrong person
9% - Being caught in an inappropriate situation with a colleague at a work party
7% - Having a ‘wardrobe malfunction’ i.e. skirt stuck in pants, wearing slippers into the office
6% - Calling my boss mum/dad
5% - Vomiting in front of my boss or colleagues due to over indulgence
