Embarrased in a chat?

[temi]

Today, I was told by a friend that he was chatting on MSN with two people, bitting about one to the other but wrongly send bitchy message about A to A instead of B in the chat.

Now A know what he really thinks of him so he does not talk to him any more.

Have you ever made such a silly mistake while chatting?

I usually double check before I type, but I believe I've made that mistake several times; that is one of the reasons I hate having many windows open at the same time, you can make mistakes and the feeling isin't something you should be proud of exactly

That's terrible. I mean just bitching about your friends that is. To get caught out in this way truely sucks.

The embarassment. You also get to look real stupid and guess what - you got no talking way out of it as you cannot deny it.

i left my cell phone "On" in my pocket. It redialed a friend and left a 5 minute recording. Yep, it was embarassing.

No, the guy was caught red handed, its not a 3rd party saying it so you cannot say you were misquoted or something like that.

Agreed. I would rather prefer to avoid having friends like that, I don't like going behind someones back and talking pure ****shit, if there is anything wrong with the person, be brave and discuss it with him individually.


Who calls a guy like that a friend? I know, I don't.

Funny, I'm wetting myself here. Sorry.

Actually that happened, to a friend of mine, he by mistake dialed me, he wasn't aware of that, but I realized that there wasn't a person behind the phone so I cancelled the call, and sent him a text message saying "you may want to check your dialed calls", such a good friend am I not?

I could've left it open and get him a 100€ bill for a single call, but I don't do that to my friends.

I have had a similar experience, someone dialed me, after our conversation, did not replace his receiver properly and I over heard conversation in that room for about 1 hour, till they realized the phone was not replaced properly. Nothing embarrassing was said so no blushes

I once received a call from a friend who was a member of the board of the company I then worked at...
I listened for almost an hour, handfree in my car...it was very interesting to hear what stuff those guys at the top had to discuss...
Since then I always switch off my cellphone before entering any meeting...

 

[temi]

Yes, the best way to know what people truly things is by hearing their conversation when they do not know you are there

 

[Bisje]

Yes indeed. And in my case... I learned a lot about those supposed "high level" managers...

 

[temi]

Hope they did not prove to be low level after the conversation you over heard

Nope. This hasn't happened to me yet !

Thats because i prefer to be invisible on IM networks, and chat with only a single person at a time.
(as there are other works like coding & forum posting to do, too, simultaneously)
