Hilarious moment woman sends ‘idiotic’ message to boss
Many people have examples of times they accidentally sent the wrong thing to their boss, had an embarrassing encounter with their manager or – the horror – called their supervisor ‘mum’.
But UK woman Issie Carmody may have a story to beat them all.

“Guys I’m actually f**king mortified... I recently got a new manager at my work, and I’ve known her for TWO days!” the young woman said in a now-viral Facebook post.
“I wanted to send my boyfriend an Animoji of me as a pig saying that I wanted a Chinese [sic]... well... I’ve sent it to my new manager and it’s the most idiotic video I have ever created.”
Luckily, her new boss saw the funny side, replying with laughter.
“I hope he gets you one,” she said.
And when Carmody continued apologising and expressing her embarrassment, her boss said she just thought it was funny.
But the story ended with smiles, after her boyfriend came home with Chinese takeaway.
“Guess who got her Chinese finally,” Carmody said.
Her pig video has since been viewed more than a million times.
But Carmody is far from the only person to have had this awkward encounter.
One woman shared a selfie with her boss, before realising her mistake.
“Oh my gosh I meant to send that to my friend I’m sorry,” she said.
Only to have her boss reply: “I think selfies are stupid.”
