This happened today and I'm still physically nauseous thinking about it.
So I was on my lunch break sitting in my car, and my girlfriend texted me asking what I wanted for dinner. I sent her a voice memo because I was eating and didnt want to type. Pretty normal stuff.
Except I also had a text chain open with my manager about a project timeline. And apparently my brain decided to just not pay attention to which conversation I was in.
The voice memo I sent was something like "babe I literally dont care lets just do whatever, I've been dealing with the dumbest stuff all day and I just want to come home and not think about anything work related for the rest of the night" and then I think I called my coworker Dan annoying. Not in a mean way just in a "Dan asked me the same question three times today" kind of way.
I didn't realize I sent it to my boss until like 20 minutes later when she replied with just "..."
Three dots. Thats it. No follow up. No "we need to talk." Just three dots.
I sent a wall of text apologizing and she just said "I understand, we all have those days" which somehow made it worse because now she thinks I'm miserable at work when really I was just being dramatic because im tired.
I have a 1:1 with her tomorrow morning and I have genuinely considered calling in sick. Dan if you're reading this you are a little annoying but I still like you.
TL;DR: Sent my boss a voice memo complaining about work and calling my coworker annoying. It was meant for my girlfriend. Boss replied with "..." and now I have a 1:1 with her tomorrow morning.
