OMFG I AM MORTIFIED.

So, I work in an office by myself most days. 

Since I've started my diet, my colon is more active.  With the gassiness. 

Today is a particularly bad day.  Normally I would hightail it to the bathroom because seriously, nobody needs to smell what my body is producing right now.  Even I'm going "WHAT THE HELL, colon?"

Anyway, there wasn't supposed to be anyone else here today. 

THERE WASN'T. 

So I didn't make an effort to leave the office in time. 

OF COURSE the big boss walks up just as the smell hits my nose. 

There is no way I could blame it on anyone else. 

He walks up, says something, then his eyes get wide and he leaves quickly then emails me his question/issue. 

MORTIFIED.

I work in a cubicle farm, too.

Oh man...that's the worst.  I had awful gas yesterday and my boss and co-worker kept coming in my office.  There is no way they didn't smell that shit.  It's was rancid.

OMG

Sorry I'm mortified for you ">

Lol. From now on we'll call you Fart Cloud. It happens to all of us once in a while.

Speshul

Blame it on him for sneaking up on you!

scoutkate

Oh, CG.  I lol'd.

My H recently farted in front on my mom. He thought he was alone and she snuck up behind him. He was horrified and never wants us to speak of it again ">

I am also a very farty person and I work in a bullpen office set up. Not good for my coworkers.

LovestheLou

Oh no.  I would be mortified too!

I'm having the same issue lately.  Stupid diets.  I'm kinda dreading going back to work next week because of it.

Once I had a silent but deadly moment in a small printer cubicle. Someone walked in before I could get my pages and scram. We actually talked about how bad it smelled in there! I pretended it must have leaked in from another cube. She said "for a moment I thought it was you". I said "if it were me I would be running away not standing here". She said "good point". I left with my head held high.

Acting!

Sorry there was no one to blame.

This made me laugh WAY to hard! Sorry that happened though!

I happen to be a particularly gassy person, which is not fun when you are a teacher. No place to escape to... Sorry CG.

Seriously. I haven't had any audible incidents in class yet, but I've had a few SBDs that I try to play off like it was one of the students.

Other anecdotes so you know you are not alone:

I voluntarily quit the gym because it was too hard to hold in the gas. Luckily people usually blame the men. I actually overheard people talking about my fart and blame some guy. Sorry guy. Side note: NEVER wear self tanning lotion to the gym. Work up a sweat and that shit smells like the worst BO. People wouldn't use the machine next to me!

A former boss was known for his audible toots. It was NBD to him, he'd just carry on. Whatever, it's natural right?

Fart on, CG. Fart on.

LMAO.

Gah -- my condolences; that's awful.  I trapped myself in my office once while pumping.  I polluted the place, then realized that as soon as I finished pumping and opened the door, I'd probably have someone stop in to talk to me, and it's hard to blame someone else when you've been in a closed office alone.  So I had to wait it out in shame until things dissipated.
