TIFU - I accidentally revealed my boyfriend's mom's infidelity

here is a majestic poof ball please enjoy the video tufu by exposing a customer's affair to his wife names changed for the sake of the post so this took place maybe half an hour ago and to be honest there's still a chance there will be some kickback for this today i 25 meters work in a call center and am doing so for the duration of this pandemic while i wait to find out what's happening about going back to university it's no career but it's a pretty nice job with some decent people and it's easy all we do really is facilitate switches for people looking for better deals on household stuff usually their internet provider or supplier of gas electricity etc we have agents in the field who make sales then call us for verification with the customer simple right not today c usually it's company policy not to do callbacks nobody wants annoying call center calls right so unless the customer specifically requests a scheduled callback we just don't do them i had a customer two days ago looking for a pretty pricey internet switch going from some basic setup to a full tv slash phone slash internet package the works all the channels anytime calls to numbers including international 500 plus mbps whiffy and it came to over 100 pounds a month i informed the customer who's an impatient sounding guy that because of the price increase he'll need to have a quick credit check run on him and it'll mean the call takes a little longer the guy gets all pissed about being busy and saying he can't waste all afternoon on the phone to some call center so would it be all right if i called him after the weekend to go through it then seemed straightforward enough this is pretty common people are always up for the sale until they realize they'll need to spend more than one whole minute on the phone but i scheduled the call anyway and asked if there was a specific time he wanted me to call he says anytime is fine and follows with if emily answers just ask her for me she'll make sure i get the phone and gave me a home phone number fast forward to today and i make a grave error see the application i had from the customer had his home phone number already filled in which it turns out was not the same number he'd given me for today's callback i called the number one thought was correct and a woman answers i say without thinking oh hi i'm calling for steve to confirm his broadband switch we spoke the other day you must be emily cue uncomfortable pause she says this is steve's wife amanda what do you mean i must be emily i apologized and said i'm so sorry when i spoke to him the other day he said if an emily answered to just ask for steve and she just goes i ducking knew it i ducking knew it and slammed the phone down after checking the application against the post-it note i jotted some info down on the other day i realized steve must have given me the number for where he was going to be today and i'd instead called his unsuspecting wife at home nobody's called into my workplace yet but if they do i don't think they'll be happy tldr customer gave me a different number to his own for a call back and i accidentally called his wife and revealed his infidelity update well duck angry steve just called my workplace and has achieved nothing but making himself look like an ever bigger ducking dip shot than he already has also for the record steve was always a dick who can die in a hole and deserves all he gets the reason for the tifu was because i was worried about my job so i haven't worked here very long and i'm still learning things about company policy and it turns out that when an application is put through by an agent it must be the applicant's own details according to what they provide the agent so i was only technically allowed to call the wife anyway not emily's home number as he gave me if he'd wanted the call to a different number he would have had to have a new application submitted with revised details it wasn't enough to just give me a different number over the phone so my job is safe few however my manager isn't happy and i'm getting a right up but i can live with that they don't mean much and i've never had one till now always on time and have taken over time voluntarily etc anyways this guy phones up and before saying anything else leads a call with one of my colleagues who by the way is a teenage girl in what i think is her first job and he says put me on with the little ducking [ __ ] who thought it would be funny to call my wife earlier after i explicitly told him not to obviously the poor girl was confused and looked about to ask the room for a manager a sap i immediately piped up and said is it mr x from insert location and she confirmed so i got her to transfer the call to my desk as soon as possible steve comes on the line and goes i bet you think you're well ducking funny you little prick put your manager on the phone and see if you're so smart when you lose your job so in my most sarcastic overcompensating cutesy phone voice ever i just say of course sir let me just transfer you to someone who can help then put him on hold for 20 minutes hoping it would wind him up even more while i found my manager and told him about the whole situation he explained what i'd said above that i wasn't technically in the wrong from a legal standpoint and then my poor team leader had to quickly explain to steve that he didn't have a legal claim but that we are sorry for the distress caused sucky i know but it's a business after all and now hopefully steve's evening culminates in his entire life being ruined i got a disciplinary right up for it but it's over now sorry for the wall of text but thanks for the awards tiffu i accidentally revealed my boyfriend's mom's infidelity obligatory this story actually happened about a year ago i 18f at the time was dating a boy named jacob 18 meters at the time his father early 60s was a mechanic and his mom mid-50s was a stay-at-home mom they were a pretty typical white suburban family in the south and had asked jacob if they could meet me even though he had only been dating for a month at the dinner i met his mom dad older brother older sister and her newborn daughter the dinner went well and i was chatting about my volunteer work at my college's blood drive to which his father explains that his doctor told him he was so negative and a universal blood donor my boyfriend mentions he is also oh but his siblings casually mention they are both a b i don't think anything of it because my bf had mentioned that his mom was married once before and was widowed the following conversation went like this me oh that's really cool you're a really rare blood type if you don't mind me asking is your mom's blood type a and your dad's b or your dad's a and mums b o s older sister what do you mean he's oh gesturing to my bf's father me oh i know i was just asking about your bio father but of course you don't have to answer if you don't want to i notice his mom get really pale and it was in that moment i realized i ducked up ob older brother what do you mean b.o father me i'm sorry i didn't mean anything by it jacob's dad got real quiet and looking at his wife's face he knew instantly i look over to jacob who i think was starting to put the full picture of what was happening together jacob's dad are you saying they are not my biological kids because my wife swore up and down in marriage counseling by marriage counseling they mean with a pastor that they were my kids and she would never cheat on me yeah turns out she never had any kids from her previous marriage jacob's mom i would never cheat on you os and ob are your kids jacob's dad opie why do you think they are not my kids i tried to excuse myself because it was very clear the cat was out of the bag and with a quick google search from my boyfriend he starts cussing out his mom she starts to sob and apologizes over and over again and i'm forced to explain 9th grade biology to his father about the fact that the only kids he could have produced were with the blood type o or b but absolutely not a b jacob was the only one with the possibility of being his son they all start screaming at one another os eventually leaves because her newborn is screaming too his mom does and locks herself in the bedroom his older brother follows her screaming asking who his real father is my boyfriend is trying to figure out if his dad still wants to be their father i eventually have a friend come pick me up yeah we broke up shortly after but not after figuring out that none of the kids produced from the marriage were his edit they found out via paternity tests for sure weren't his kids and they divorced soon after tldr i accidentally revealed that my boyfriend's mom was unfaithful by pointing out the fact that his older siblings who both had the blood type baby could not have been biologically related to their own negative father edit for those asking how they knew their blood types jacob donated blood for the blood drive at our school his sister just had a baby so she was probably informed during pregnancy jacob's dad was told by his doctor for probably underlying medical reasons i don't know i wasn't ever really close to his family after that for obvious reasons and i don't know how his brother knew that's an amazing life experience not many people get to be the catalyst for a family disintegrating by holding an impromptu high school science lecture dog this is exactly why our bo class stopped having the students compare their blood to their parents blood for labs apparently there was always one kid every year who was not biologically connected to the dad i wonder how many people will actually see a family implode you had a front row seat what do you mean front row seat this lucky slash unlucky's an offer [ __ ] was driving steered headfirst into the family then got out of the car and run away unscathed
