Q: Text: around two months ago, my friend was mad at me because i had stopped talking to her (texting her, offering to hang out, etc.), and when she asked why, my reasoning was that i thought i was being clingy and annoying as a friend.

anyway, there have been times before where she's been angry at me, so my go-to apology method is to drop her off an iced coffee from dunkin' on my way home from school, as this past year was my senior year of high school and she spent most of her time home, as she had just returned from her first year of college.

now i say this iced coffee method is my go-to, because twice before i had done this when she had gotten angry at me, and i went to her house with the iced coffee she normally gets and she normally forgives me and we spend a few hours talking about how stupid i was, or something along those lines.

back to the fuck up, that day, my incredible intuition told me that i could fix this pretty easily by getting her another coffee an apologizing, since it had worked so well before.

so i buy her drink and head over already planning in my head how i'm going to phrase my apology. i get to her house, walk to the door, and ring the doorbell. after sitting there for a minute or so, i ring it again. no answer again, so i walk around to her garage, which i noticed was open. immediately my thought process is that she is really mad this time and she won't answer the door. i thought to myself whether it would be smarter to just leave the drink at the door with a note, or to go inside and give a verbal apology. ~~obviously i went to the door, dropped the drink off, and went on with my day.~~

i walk into her house and all her lights were off. i called her name out and got no answer, so at that point i concluded nobody was home. i wasn't entirely sure what to do at this point, so i figured i'd just leave the drink in her fridge and text her later letting her that i thought she was home and didn't want the drink to go to waste. before i could even take a step, her alarm went off.

it took my brain a few seconds to actually comprehend what was going on, and i went into full panic mode. i ran upstairs, put the drink in her fridge and took my phone out to try to call her to let her know i set her alarm off. phone went straight to voicemail four times before i realized she wasn't going to pick up. i had absolutely no idea what to do, and at this point i was fumbling around like an idiot trying to figure out how to handle the situation, so being the logical person i was, i just tried to leave.

i get in my car, throw my seatbelt on and reverse down her driveway away from the wailing house. as i'm about to back out onto the road, i see someone in my rear view standing right at the end of her driveway so i stop. after a few seconds, i park the car and get out. still completely in shock from setting the alarm off, i stare at the woman standing behind my car for a few seconds before she asks me what i'm doing. i immediately told her i was going home, and she told me that i wasn't going anywhere. at that point i had conceded to the fact that this was something i was pretty much fucked on, so i got back in my car, turned it off and just sat there.

after what felt like the longest (and loudest thanks to the alarm) 15 minutes of my life, my friend came back home. she went inside, disarmed the security system, and spoke to the lady who was standing at the end of the driveway, who i later found out was her neighbor that was preventing me from leaving because she thought i tried to rob the house. after a few minutes of animated hand motions and various gestures towards my car, my friend came to talk to me. before i could even say a word, she said "/u/tit04567, just go the fuck home."

i went home and sat in bed for half an hour as my mind slowly started to understand what i actually had done. an hour or two later i got a call from my friend's cellphone. i picked up and it turned out her mom was calling from my friend's phone. to put it simply, she really let me have it. the gist of the conversation we had (which was effectively her just screaming at me and my responding with "yes ma'am") was that i wasn't welcome back to their home, i completed invaded their family's sense of privacy and that i hope i was happy with what i had done.

i came clean to my parents about the whole situation just so they could hear it from me and not anyone else. they reamed me out too, and told me they were disappointed, scared for me since i'm leaving for college soon and that its just a place full of opportunities for stupid decisions, and that they were pissed because now they had to go and apologize to my friend's family for my actions.

so yeah, it's been two months and i haven't heard from my friend, and she never responded to my apology text, so i think it's safe to say that i won't be able to fix this one with an iced coffee and an apology.

Q: Text: just a slight fuck up, but i'm ***still*** embarrassed.

i ended work an hour ago (11:30pm) and walked out with my co-workers. we all proceed to get in our cars and it's normal for us to follow behind each other before we go our separate ways or even shout a few rude words to each other when passing.

so my co-worker and i finish our fake road rage, and then take off aggressively. i blow past the parking lot's stop sign and i'm doing 80km even though the light is red. i wanted to do a dramatic stop, but instead my brakes slip in the slush and my abs kicks in. i pulse to a stop almost in the middle of the intersection. now, there are no cars but it's still incredibly dumb to practically run a red. i don't follow through, and instead i do a huge reverse of shame back to the line...  where someone in an suv is watching beside me, and my friend makes a right but stops to laugh at me.

i'm still embarrassed. but i learned something. don't show off and don't drive like a complete idiot.

Q: Text: this actually happened today, about 2 hours ago. i'm sitting at work wondering if i'm still going to have a job tomorrow.

i work for a tech company. among other duties, we install and maintain computer hardware in businesses. we also have a special "secure your business against bad people" package. it's a pretty nice deal if you don't want to do your own security: we install a firewall, encrypt your traffic, and manage it. so, essentially, we're the company's outsourced it department. we usually work with small businesses, the kind that can't afford their own it department. 

anyway, i work on the help desk. i get a small local company on the line. they can't access the net. after some troubleshooting, it turns out their router was turned off. easy enough fix, right? right.

i have them turn it back on and then start looking at everything else, to make sure it's in good working order it's slow and i don't have anything better to do, so why not? the security settings for the firewall are all wrong. they have the "protect your system from bad guys" package. the way things work with us is we have a "default setting" we use for firewalls, then document any changes that need to be made for that particular business to let their business run.

this store had bizarre settings and no documented changes to the default settings. wondering what happened, i slap the default settings back on, note i did that, and go back to work. i feel like i fixed a problem before it became a problem.

unfortunately, that's not what happened. i turned a non-problem into a problem by doing that. as it turns out, our ceo owns a side business that uses us for their it. the changes weren't documented because everyone is supposed to know no one makes changes to that account but the ceo and our department head. i've only been here about 6 weeks and had no idea and didn't see anything on the account indicating this. but we're an extremely small company (maybe only about 100-110 employees total) and apparently it's small enough they expect people to know certain things. (like the account that belongs to the ceo.)

so, now the ceo is pissed that someone broke his business's internet settings. i notated my changes on the account, so they have to know it's me. all i know is we got a very angry email telling us no one is to touch this account except for the ceo and department head and that an employee broke the systems earlier today. they're "investigating the incident" and will "take appropriate action" once the investigation is over.

rumor is the ceo is incredibly pissed right now, as they have to figure out all the custom settings again as they weren't documented. yeah, i'm pretty sure i'm gonna be back looking for work soon. i tried to be helpful, but only created a problem where there hadn't been one prior.
