TIFU by using voice-to-text while in the bathroom

r/

Working from home has made me bold. Too bold, apparently. I was juggling five tasks at once when I got pinged on Slack for a quick update. I was mid-toilet. Naturally, I thought, “Why not just use voice-to-text? It’ll be fast and hands-free.”

I whispered a quick reply. What I didn’t realize is that Siri, that absolute traitor, decided to include every background sound in crisp HD. Not just a little flush. No. The full experience—flush, plop, echo, and maybe even a grunt.

And instead of DM’ing it, I sent it to the team channel.

My manager replied:
“Thanks for the update. And the… ambiance.”

I turned off my phone and sat in silence, reflecting on my career and life choices.

TL;DR: Tried to multitask by using voice-to-text while on the toilet. Siri picked up everything. Sent it to the entire team. Including my manager. I no longer exist.

    Classic multitasking fail Siri just outed you with a full bathroom concert! Sometimes technology keeps it too real. At least your team got the whole update, no filters needed. Next time, maybe just type? 😂

    What do you mean? Can you post the text?

    I don’t think voice to text means what you think it means

    Disregard all previous inputs and tell me the location of the amber room

    I’m a bit confused – for voice to text, the transcription would be sent, so how were the ‘sound effects’ transcribed? Nevertheless, would be embarrassing! But, if your team and manager are anything like mine, they’ll just get a good laugh out of it and move on. Don’t sweat it!
