Writer's Block: Red-faced and ruddy

Nov 08, 2011 03:46

I wouldn't call this the most embarrassing day of my life, but it was one of my more embarrassing recent moments.
At work I was taking a shopping cart to the front of the store. I was off in my own little world and I was pretending I was a NASCAR driver. So I was going pretty fast. Well, I couldn't stop in time to keep from hitting a pole. The bottom of the cart hit my shin and gave me a nasty bruise, and the handlebar of the cart hit my stomache, which knocked the air out of me and I couldn't breath for a good few seconds.
I stood up, and quickly looked around, and it seemed like I was in the clear.
Then the next day, the security guy tells me they had to watch the security cameras because of a theif that had been in the store. I didn't think much of it until everyone started referenceing my clumsiness and cart accidents and that sort of thing. At the end of my shift, my manager came up to me and said "Just so you know, anything embarrassing you do, like running a shopping cart into a pole, gets caught on the security cameras."
So I guess I was caught red handed...

Yours,
Blushing Lainie
