You know you're an idiot when...

Buying something at the pharmacy the other day, I ask for the item, they tell me they come in single packs. Before I realised it, I'd asked how many units are in each pack 
.
In my head a "pack" is more than one, so I asked without thinking... Quickly brushed that one under the carpet.

One of my colleagues took a call at work today. After a minute he said “I’ll pass you over to Steve on that one, it’s his project”, handed me his phone and I took over the conversation, spoke for 4 or 5 minutes about various things and then the chap on the call asked me for some info.
“No problem” I said, “I’ve got the guys details and a couple of photos of the site on my phone. I’ll send them over via whatsapp.”
Spent the next 5 mins totally flummoxed as to why my phone passcode has suddenly changed from 6 digit to a 4 digit code, why the text don’t was suddenly so big, and why my face recognition doesn’t work?
Eventually said to the guy I’d taken the phone from “this is really odd, my passcode is only showing as 4 digits. I’ve got no idea how to get into my phone?”.
“That’s not your phone Steve, it’s mine, I just gave it you so you could speak to Tom, your phone’s on your desk, where you left it.”

king idiot!!
In my defence we do both have identical iPhones with the same protective case!

I used to walk to work everyday for 3 and 1/2 years, then got a sceond car. I drove to work one day, then at 5pm, i duly put my coat on, slung my rucksack on my back and set off walking.
After 5 minutes i suddenly realised i had left the car at work. What a spanner

I once went to the bathroom after relaxing for a while in my bedroom carrying my underpants in one hand and some toilet paper in the other ....... and threw my pants into the toilet. I'd clearly relaxed a bit too much.
I threw my socks in the toilet instead of the laundry basket, luckily I came to my senses before doing something nasty in the laundry basket.I was once sat on my motorbike at a set of traffic lights and feeling a bit cold, so I reached out to turn the heater on, totally forgetting that I was on my bike and not in the car. I must have sat there for about 10 seconds with my hand reaching out for a non existent switch,
When you spend 15 minutes trying to bump start a motorbike that won’t start because the battery is completely flat.
You then get someone from the office to help you push and bump it later on in the day, turn the key and try firing it one more time ‘Just in case’ even though you know for sure it won’t start.
And it fires up instantly.
There was a couple of key words in that 2nd part that didn’t feature in the 1st 15 minute bump start stint … ‘Turn the Key’
