Has anyone ever found that their skirt got tucked into the back of their "all in one" (no panties required) panty hose? I worked for a very busy credit union....my back was to the main entrance where hundreds waited to enter....some kind soul kept banging on the door and pointing....I grouchily looked at my watch and mouthed "we open in 5 minutes" and turned my back. The banging persisted. I went and opened the door at the scheduled time, annoyed by the impatient customers until one elderly woman said, "Dear, you derriere is exposed!". That explained the breeze! I rushed to my office where I untucked the skirt, covered the cellulite and hid in my office till closing time.

Here's one that's kind of --ahem--different. When I was working in China, I blatantly used every opportunity I could to show off my (limited) Mandarin language skills. So, one day in a group of about a dozen Americans, I began ordering breakfast. When I ordered my pineapple juice, the waiter looked stunned and kept shaking his head, "NO!"
I kept insisting (knowing full well that they did have pineapple juice) but he kept shaking his head. This went on for a couple minutes, he becoming ever more agitated. He finally he took his hands and made a gesture like he was following the outline of two hills, or maybe, the humps on a camel. That's when it dawned on me. The words for pineapple and camel are strangely alike in Chinese (phonetically, it would be like low-ah tow-ah vs. bo-ah lo-ah).
I had attempted to order pineapple JUICE, but I was ordering camel PEE!!!
Between my red face and about a half dozen other waiters cracking up as the story was told over and over and over while we sat there all morning, even though the Americans didn't understand fully, there was no missing that I had made a HUGE mistake. [Eek!]

When I was in Italy I was trying to say you're welcome and no wonder they looked at me strange. I was saying, Prada, my favorite shoes! But Camel Pee tops my story by a mile!

That would have to be one day at work when I came out of the ladies bathroom with my skirt tucked into the top of my pantyhose...and yep, there I was the commander's secretary (I worked for an Army officer) walking down the hallway back to my desk...I wondered why I kept getting hoots and hollars as I passed offices...When I sat down in my chair and felt the chair's fabric on my butt, I realized in horror what had happened...needless to say I didn't go to the bathroom the rest of the day...
