My boss has shared email with his permanent secretary (I'm a temp) and he asked me to print off the first 8 of his (I didn't even know it could be shared with someone else). I printed off all the secs ones instead and not his and it was all to do with the canteen's menu for the day and cheap theatre tickets. I feel soooo stupid! He must think I'm so daft. What excuse can I give him to say I printed the wrong ones off? Shall I tell him I was tired, or what? Please?

Just admit that you made a mistake is all. It doesn't look as if it caused any damage. People make mistakes including your boss. If you feel you need to use an excuse...use a truthful one like...You know...I've had so much on my mind today. You know dementia runs in my family an make a little weird face. (Make a light joke out of it). Everyone has days like that. Tell him you are sorry it happened, that your only human and you will try to make certain this doesn't happen again.

No you do not ought to drop some weight, your boyfriend is merely susceptible. i will elevate 50 kilos greater advantageous than my weight, so i don't understand why he won't be in a position to elevate somebody 5 kilos lighter than him. do not loose weight, you're a solid length. i'm the comparable top as you and 20 kilos greater.

Tell him you did not read them as they were private and confidential, that way he will think more of you and gain more of a trust barrier between your boss, afterall you did print off what he wanted

Tell him you've been spending too much time on Yahoo! Answers and weren't paying attention to your job.

Just tell him the truth, it looks better that you didn't know the system than him thinking you are a bit thick :-)
