Embarrassing Moment

We've all done things to embarrass ourselves. All I can do is thank God no one was around to see the mistake I made yesterday.

I was on my way to the restroom and was trying to devise a plan to escape from work early. Since I started my new job, I leave at 4:00. I was wanting to escape around 3:30, just a few minutes early. I was thinking about how to evade the boss and get out without anyone realizing I was gone. I opened the bathroom door and immediately thought to myself, "this isn't familiar!" I took one step into the bathroom and then realized I was walking into the men's restroom. Yes, I said "men's." I could hear someone (I can only assume it was a man) washing his hands. I began to pray to all that is holy that he couldn't see me. Thank goodness there were no mirrors. I cringe to think what I might have seen. The women's restroom is right next door to the men's. I back tracked out of the men's restroom and proceeded into the appropriate restroom. No one was in the hallway to see what I had done. I managed to walk in and out of the men's restroom without anyone noticing. I was so embarrassed I was shaking. I can only imagine what would have happened if my boss, who is a man, had seen me or even been in the restroom. Dear God the trauma. I would have definitely needed some therapy!
