I was emailing my friend about how much I hate my job, but clicked the wrong button - ended up in the inbox of my manager

Still working here and hating it

I did that as well lol.. soon as i realised i ran over to him and im like i accidently sent an email to you which was meant to go to a friend of mine do you mind deleting it? lucky he was logged out at the time and he's like yeah no worries.

when i was a kid i went to the bank with my old man... he was doing business banking (family business) and dropped like $8k (i didn't see him drop it) but saw a couple pick it up and walk out of the bank... when we got served, he realised the money was missing and had no idea what had happened... i told him i saw someone walk out of the bank after picking up a lot of money off the ground but we never found them...

that's about as big a loss that i've caused...

when I was 15 I worked at a department store for a little while, serving customers, taking out rubbish and that kinda stuff. One day the elevator was out of order so I decided to take the big wheely bin of rubbish down the escalator. As soon as I got on, the bin slipped off and went down at a million miles an hour, nearly knocking a woman over and the rubbish got all tangled in the escalator motor, the emergency cut off didn't work and so the motor burnt out. Something about a $6k bill was mentioned, though it was such a pov shop they never got it fixed and closed down a year later. Probably my fault, the woman was pretty traumatised and may have sued.

All because they didn't fix the elevator.

some funny as sh!t in here! laughed a lot! some of mine arent quite as bad as some of the other on here...

I work for my families freight company which carts big machinery and farm/mining equipment across the nation, i was driving a 20ton fork loading a 13odd ton impact roller onto a truck, it somehow slipped off the end and onto the trailer bending it then kept sliding onto the ground... nearly killing the d!ckhead who was helping me, i kept telling him to get outta the way coz anything can happen, lucky he moved when he did!! bent trailer and damaged the roller... both are worth a fair bit

i sometimes to escorting too!( no not that sort), driving a chase vehicle to guide trucks with super wide loads, i T-boned some p plater girl in a camry who came across the intersection in front of me whilst i was escorting a truck through (even tho she had 'right of way' we had stopped all the traffic, flashing lights etc etc)... apparently we are being sued for that.. no one is really sure who's fault it was..

best one would have to be drifting the managers work runabout (vz monaro) right in front of him.. not happy!! but we all laugh about it now which is good!

I sent an email picture of two down syndrome kide sharing a milkshake in a park with a caption reading "my milkshake brings all the tards to the yard" to an email distrubution list with over 40 people on it. Lucky ofr me most of theme were in QLD and after bullsh!tting my way out of it I still have my job!

uhhh don't really have any major stuff ups... but in my current job while redoing the toyota website when we were putting together the design preview I changed all the aurions with chasers and camry's with verossas... somehow some of them slipped thru the net of final signoff... I got a huffy email a while after the site went live from my boss saying "please remove the non australian toyota cars from the site."

Didn't cost the company a cent, but I'm sure some boss at toyota had a seizure after seeing parallel imports on their site.

lol @ stolen_s15

you only ever make that mistake once..

My philosophy now is that I don't send anything to anyone unless I'm prepared for the wrong person to eventually see it too!

Oh I just thought of something.. when I was 14 I worked at a butchers in Sydney.. we used to slice up deli meats as well.. even though I'd been there for about a year.. one Saturday morning I was slicing something up for a customer and took off a good chunk of my thumb... thumb = invaluable! :\ I was earning about $5 an hour...

I don't think you can tell though... sure seemed alot worse at the time!

lol I was just saying the other day that I need a crowbar for the Wii so I can play HL on there :P hehehe!

Need Wiiocket Launchers too! :)

Need practice before they start up the LHC..

Oh boy that'd be fun...

They fired up the LHC yesterday... ...Don't know if they've done any collisions yet or not...

I unplugged the wrong thing when I was told to vacuum at a palliative care house...

Lucky for me there was an alarm and a battery back up...

:D

hahahahaha i reckon u may have lost ur job (possibly freedom) for that one! f*k that was close..

GOLD!!!!!!

BAAAHAHAAA

I have just found that pic and forwarded it to everyone in my address book.

A mate's brother was working for him and loaded a 30tonne excavator onto a low-loader semi.

Swung the boom as he was loading and flipped it onto his brother's brandd new Landcruiser Sahara. Total write-off!

Same guy left a nightclub with me at 4am in the City. Got a cab straight to the farm job (pissed) and was driving the same excavator and flipped it on it's side. Fell asleep and the farmer woke him up 3hrs later.

There's 7 boys and I could go on forever about this family and their f@$kups!

i used to work driving trams and i derailed the tram, ass end came off the tracks as i was entering into the shed at work and didnt know the ass end was off the tracks (as i was going like 6km/h) till the ass end really kicked out and hit the shed wall (Bricks) and hit air compressor line for the tram mechanics in the shed and cleaned up the fire hose reel, and the fence. lol total damage cost was bout $60000 to get tram repaired and painted, new shed wall, air compressor line fire hose reel, new fence and new bitumen and tracks lol ( and yes i still had my job afterwards as the investigated it and found out it was due to the tracks being in poor condition)phew!!! lol

Lesson - Never try to drift a tram - you have no steering wheel - hahahaha

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
