I have been generally writing on ‘Motivation and Positive thoughts’ subjects. Today morning I felt that I should write something which is on the lighter side. So I thought of ten funny and embarrassing real life situations which most of us have experienced ( at least I have experienced these) their ramifications and how to tackle these. These are as under:
1. If you dose off in a lecture and are sitting in a front row, it can be embarrassing but the best way to tackle this situation is to apologize to the lecturer after the class and explain the reason for your drowsiness. This will show that you take the lecture seriously and it was not intentional. The ramification could be a loss of concentration during the lecture.
2. If you go to meet important people and your zipper fly of the trouser is open by mistake, try to discreetly fix it without drawing attention to yourself. If someone does notice, simply apologize and fix the issue. The ramification could be a decrease in your credibility or professionalism.
3. During a meeting, passing gas with a lot of noise can be embarrassing. Try to control it as much as possible, and if it does happen, apologize and try to make a joke out of it to lighten the situation. The ramification could be that people may not take you seriously or be put off by your behavior.
4. Forgetting your wife while shopping and driving away can be a serious issue. The best way to tackle this situation is to immediately return and apologize to your wife. This could result in your wife being upset or feeling neglected.
5. If you have to pee urgently while at someone’s place, ask for directions to the bathroom and excuse yourself. The ramification could be that people may think you are rude if you do not excuse yourself.
6. If you feel extremely sleepy while driving a car, it is important to pull over and take a rest. Driving while drowsy is dangerous and can lead to serious accidents. The ramification could be a potential accident that could cause harm to yourself or others.
7. If you get an urge to scratch your bums while in a group of friends, it is best to excuse yourself and go to a private place to deal with the situation. The ramification could be that people may find it offensive or inappropriate.
8. If you realize that you are wearing different colored socks on your right and left foot while dressed up formally in a party, it is best to try and cover it up as much as possible or make a joke out of it to lighten the situation. The ramification could be a decrease in your confidence or professionalism.
9. If you forget your wallet while filling gas in your car at a gas station, apologize to the attendant and explain the situation. Offer to come back and pay as soon as you can or leave something of value as collateral. The ramification could be that the attendant may not trust you or may call the police.
10. If you forget your reading glasses during an examination, try to borrow a pair from someone else or request to sit closer to the board. The ramification could be a decrease in your performance on the exam due to not being able to read the questions properly and writing the answers blindly.
