What the worst thing that's ever happened to you at work? Did you hide it or own up?



What the worst thing that's ever happened to you at work? Did you hide it or own up?

I work in a law firm, I got a bunch of legal documents back from the DA and misplaced them on my desk. I found them a few months later, long after the deadline to have them filed, and decided to just put them in random files throughout the office. I never owned up to it even when people were asking me if I knew where they were, it turned into a fiasco...but I was never found out.
Never been able to tell anyone.
i had a bad night on the shorts and i passed wind and it stunk.i had to own up they all felt sick.i will go out side next time.
Hid it of course. What do you think this is....confessions!!! lmao

No seriously at my place of employment you are guilty, until you prove yourself innocent.
When I first left school (50 years ago for goodness sake) I worked for a large grocery shop - there were no supermarkets then.

I discovered that kit e kat (cat food) and baked beans were in exactly the same size tins and . . . . . me and another 15 year old spent hours in the back room switching the labels . . and as far as we know, not one ever came back!
put the wrong type of fuel in a dept of energy vehicle == could not hide vehicle had to be towed off.
I was working in a Bank and it was discovered one of my accounts was over one million pounds short.

I couldn't own up as it wasn't me.
