Shortly after I started transitioning i had to use the bathroom and someone saw me go in. They waited outside for me to leave and glared at me while I did.

My manager later pulled me aside to apologize for the incident and assure me it wouldn’t happen again, the person had been talked to. I didn’t realize how it could have been even more mortifying until then.

Anytime I have anxiety, my entire body wants to do multiple core dumps as quickly as possible, so every time is awkward.

Most awkward recently was being called over to help search for a lost cat. 30 minute drive where increasingly I have to go. Get there, go instead of search. Search. No cat.

Find him inside after going to the bathroom another time. So he was never lost, just being a cat.

High school graduation. There was really nothing to do about it, sitting through all the long speeches, in piercing pain. Ran straight for the stalls after.

I was on a 911 medical emergency. After 10+ minutes taking care of the patient and getting them ready to go to the ER, I bent down to grab some equipment and wham, I felt it starting to drop out of my ass! I yelled to my partner that I’d be “out in a minute, I’m having a GI emergency”.

I used the bathroom in the house as quickly as I could take care of business. Luckily, the patient was stable and not in a serious situation.
