    Default Embarrassing typos/word mix ups in work emails

    Dull preface first. We have some validation software I run on data before sending it to a public database. I've just run it one a file for someone and it's given errors they need to fix.

    Mailed them meaning to say "see the attached output from the validator" instead put "see the attached output from the violater"

    I've managed to avoid pressing send but the 'o' key on my keyboard is sticky so I've had a couple of close calls with the word 'count' in the past.

    I meant to say Mitchellstown Porch; but instead wrote Mitchellstown Porn

    Not on me work computer, that's outrageous, how dare you suggest it.

    The 't' 'u' 'b' 'e' 'g' 'a' 'l' 'o' 'r' 'e' keys on me own laptop are practically eroded mind.

    There's certain words I always type incorrectly but there's only one that has nearly got me in trouble.
    I once sent an e mail, luckily to a friend, which begun with "I know you are busy" but I wrote "I know you are busty".
    She saw the funny side.

    Sent a text to my mate a while ago concerning the results at CERN. Managed to mistype "hadron" as "hardon", which changed the timbre of the message considerably.

    We had loads of work being done to the electricity in the village where i work and were told that the power may go off for periods throughout the day.

    My boss sent an email to all our clients explaining what was happening and ended the message with this:

    "we apologise for the incontinence this may cause some of our clients"

    What a twat
