Your Most Embarrasing Moment At Work by Melahou(m): 9:17am On Jan 14, 2013
It was a Monday morning precisely 11am wen I started feeling so hungry. I just couldnt wait till 1pm to go for my break.

I brought out my food flask which has become a daily routine for me to take food to the office.

As I began to devour the Eba with oha soup, BEHOLD my MD, the Admin Mgr and 3 bank officials just entered my office apparently to open another cooperate account for the company since I happen to be the company`s accountant.

I felt the disappointment on his face as they all stared at one another. I wished the ground could open; the rest is history.

I laughed out loud when I was drinking water, then I was choked, I coughed so badly and then the water came out from my nose.That happened when I was at the meeting in my company.

The day i was asked to represent my organization in a Chess game in Nairobi (after they saw in my Cv that i love playing chess for a hobby), That day i decided to fall ill just to miss my flight, when i came to report my illness to the office.

I saw a chessboard on my table - then my boss said i should warm up with one dude (from the Canadian Embassy). i come dey shake like persin wey wan have s3x the first time... I swear i don't even know which one is queen, knight, king or dia daughter. I just love the game....what happen next is a story for another day.

My super sexy female boss caught me staring lustfully @ her, just joined the department back then. She smiled and continued what she was doing, for the rest of the day she simply smiled sweetly each time our gaze locked.

I'm sure I turned pink with my black skin that day. embarassed

No offense, I see u lack good job ethics to be eating during working hours; and to worsen it Eba and uha soup(that looks sick) you should be embarraased by ur boss for embarassing d company.

May be dey caught you throwing the round ball of eba in excitment kai.smh grin

1. My boss was grilling me in accounting.. He asked me some questions and i was struggling.. He asked some more and the intense fear and tension didn't allow my brain boot. Funny thing being he had just asked me those same questions two minutes ago and i answered them.. You think shame caught me? My boss was so ashamed he couldn't look at me! grin embarassed I was sooooo embarrassed eh? He couldn't meet my frustrated gaze out of disappointment say which kain eeeediot i go hire abeg?! In my mind, all i was thinking was "these jealous people from my village wey no wan make i great for life don succeed oooooo!" grin

2. Same boss and i were chatting work-related business on BBM while i was simultaneously toasting a babe that was going to gimme punny on another chat. Next thing, i mistakenly sent a cheeky line to my male boss instead of the girl... My boss was like shocked then undecided then angry ... Chai! Omo i scatter laugh o! Say see as toto wan make me lose my job, dey toast man! Chineke?! embarassed

That's his lunch you are talking about, just that he couldn't wait for it to get to lunch time.

And what's wrong with taking EBa and soup for lunch?
