Mine was at the weekend, just before I was due to go out to watch some Opera...

I was asked how much a 2013 Demon was new, so I went onto Vanguard's site and looked at the price. It was cheaper than the 2012 version, which isn't right... so I thought VAT wasn't added on. Rather than take the online price and add 20% on manually, I added one to the shopping cart. Went to the checkout. No VAT added on then... so I thought "it'll show it on PayPal's payment screen".
So I entered my PP details... screen said "The next screen will confirm payment". I interpreted that as "Review your payment info before paying". Wrong - I ordered a Demon.
Imagine how much my pants filled up with the brown stuff.

I quickly called Jason @ Vanguard and asked him to reverse the payment. Thankfully, the PayPal status was "unclaimed" so no money had been sent, so Jason just refused the order and it was cancelled off the system.

10 mins later, Frank messages me on PBNation to ask if I just placed and order, and why did I cancel it. If he had go there before Jason had cancelled it, he would have authorised the payment and WHAMMO i'd be up the creek without a paddle!

I wasn't even drunk! :)

What stupid things have you done?

I emailed a colleague, laying down the smack on another colleague, who was f-ing up big-time. I accidentally emailed it to the guy I was bitching about.
Lovely moment that was.

My team at work is undergoing a restructure and the manager has decided to leave, so everyone is moody and edgy. I've been turning up late and going home early, as well as not filling in my time sheet properly (which is fairly obvious to my colleagues), so I owe roughly a day of extra work. I probably ****ed myself over big time, if the incoming manager sees I doubt my chances of being kept on.
