Potentially embarrassing moments

In a previous outside sales job, I worked out of a home office and was often on the phone (setting appointments, etc.). I used a headset, cuz, well, I like them.

I was on hold for a client when my cat jumped in my lap. She was rubbing up against me, purring and looking up at me wistfully. Just as I pet her and said, "I love you" the client's assistant happened to have come on the line (in time to hear me). With a slightly startled voice she responded, "well, I love you too."

Thankfully, she understood once I explained the situation (and she was always very cheerful with me after that whenever I called).
