21 People Who Became Famous at Work for All the Wrong Reasons

Unless you’re one of those guys in a vagina suit, spinning a cardboard dildo in the direction of the local adult store, everyone wants recognition at work. After all, you’re not going to get ahead by being anonymous. Sometimes, though, the recognition that you get isn’t at all the kind that you want.
For Redditor ZombieDog, it was when they accidentally sent an email in which spellcheck had replaced every instance of the word “Pentiums” with “penis.” “My boss forwarded it to all of upper management, who in turn forwarded it on across the entire company,” they told r/AskReddit. “It was my first professional job, and within two months of working there, I was universally known as ‘The Penis Kid.’"
They then asked, “Ever do anything that unintentionally went viral at work?” and all kinds of unfortunate IRL virality followed.
