Ever thought things were FUBAR but it mysteriously turns out everything was fine?
Edited on Tue Jul-08-08 08:37 AM by PeterU
I'm not going to go into specifics, but I thought I had made a major screw-up, and this morning I found out everything had worked out as I planned. Coincidence, divine intervention, I have no idea. I'm just relieved.

1. Are we talking end of Office Space bad...
or merely "failure to fill out TPS reports" bad?

2. Failure to fill out TPS reports bad.
Nothing to get me in deep trouble, but it would have made me look somewhat sloppy and irresponsible.

4. I had one of those yesterday too...
I needed to clean the counter so I set a milk carton on the floor instead of putting back in the fridge where it belongs...then I accidentally kicked it over...after I just mopped the floor. I wasn't going to re-mop the floor because I had a store meeting in 30 minutes and I was behind schedule, so I soaked it up with paper towels then sat through the meeting claiming I had no idea why it smelled like cheese and baby vomit in there. After the meeting, I said I was going to call in a maintenance request and hung behind until I could re-mop the floor.

3. You thought you had put money on the Washington Reagan Nationals instead
of the O's?? Then realized that you had actually put the money on the O's???

5. Yes, that just happened to me this morning.
Something I was losing sleep over turned out to be just fine somehow.
