i work as a probation worker and i had a meeting at one of our offices in the county (i'm in the uk btw). it was an inconvinience right from the get-go because i'm only contracted to work two evenings which i already did this week so my normal finishing time for my other days should be 4:30pm. 

this case needing seeing to sign some paperwork and it was friday and the earliest time he could come in to see me was straight after work at 5:30pm. really annoying working an evening when you shouldn't have to - they are precious to me as it is as my evening times i finish at 9:30pm, get home, eat, shower, talk to my wife etc and its bed time before the cycle begins again for an early start. its just annoying as the day disappears and its tomorrow already. so i hate evening shifts and  i hate working late when i dont have to. today was one of those occasions.

i go to the office out in the county, i've been there a fair few times but never after 4:30pm, usually during normal working hours. this was going to be a ballache but i thought fuck it - just get the case signed and closed and il just build up some hours to take off at another time.

i get there at 5pm and reception staff are on there way out and there's only 2 other people left in the building - steve and nicky. i'm meeting with steve as were seeing his offender so reception call him to come down and buzz me through the electronic doors. all our buildings have a electronic key-card system to separate all the areas - i have one for my own office in the city but not for the county offices as you have to sign yourself in to get one and sign it back out each time - its a pain so i thought i'd let my colleague steve come down and just buzz me in to save me the hassle.

he buzzes me through the doors, we sit and talk and the case comes finally at around 5:30pm - at least the guys punctual. i meet with him and steve, we sign the paperwork and i"m done for 6pm - great, maybe the day wont be wasted and i can get home at a decent time i think. i go back up to where we were sitting to grab my stuff and steve asks me if i need walking out the office - i thought this was strange but i said nah il be fine dont worry about it (why would someone offer to "walk you down?" i thought, anyways he's a friendly guy so thought he was just him being polite as usual - turns out it wasnt just polite, it was necessary). i get down the stairs out the secure area and to the front doors where reception is. i go to push the doors open and they are locked shut..."er..wtf?"

now it dawns on me - i literally am fucked. i can't go back the way i came as it requires a secure key to open the doors and theres no way im able to force it open. reception staff are gone and its me stuck in the hallway. i realise exactly how fucked i'm about to be as i remember theres two exits and steve is still upstairs probably thinking i've left but if he takes the short exit (which is highly likely as it leads to the carpark where his car is) - he won't even know i'm locked in the front hallway downstairs on this side.

fuck. i start to search for nicky on facebook as i've seen her suggested a few times in my side feed but never added her as i didnt know her well enough really - today is going to be a good a day as any to get to know her i think - my battery is at like 37% at this point -  i add her as a friend and message the hell out of her hoping she can maybe ring steve or if she is still about ( steve isn't on facebook btw). 

obviously it goes to her spam folder as she hasnt accepted my friend request as she doesnt religiously monitor her phone.

i suddenly have flashes of getting stuck in the office all night with work the next day - how the fuck do you even explain this i think to others. not just that, i literally will be the laughing stock as people will no doubt hear of this across the company. how embarrassing is this going to be i think.....stories like this can go viral in the workplace "ha i heard you got locked in the office all night" - will be the thing i'll be hearing for years. we still refer to people at work by incidents "yeah hes the guy that got caught having an affair" or "yeah shes the one that slept with whats-his-face". your labelled and identified by your misdemeanors here.

i could literally imagine people saying that to me and at this moment in time it was about to become a reality.

i have an idea - i'll ring my own office reception as i know they have evening cover there for our groups we run - i ring and our receptionist, lets call her julie, is working. 

the office is near empty at this point except for people coming in drips and drabs. i ring and somehow julie isnt at the reception phone - no doubt going for her long walks that she does. she has one fucking job which is to sit at that desk and answer phones and sign people in as they come. thats it - were not asking for much from her. my battery is draining fast at this point and approaching 24%. shes nowhere to seen and im sat on hold.

she finally answers and i say to her in the most frantic hyper-ventilated voice: "julie - im locked in the county office - i need you to listen really carefully. steve is still here- you need to ring his desk and ask him to come down" 

julie is thick as shit and as reliable as a used car salesman. 

julie: "what? what do you mean you're stuck?"

"jesus fucking christ" i think as i know i'm fucked now. the only person i have to rely on is julie.

"just ring steves desk here and tell him im locked downstairs - you have his number in the staff directory - that's all you have to do" .

i might as well have been talking bloody french to her. 

julie: "ok one moment" 

she puts me on hold. thank god, i think shes doing it.... no. she isnt.

i'm on hold for like 20 minutes and my battery is on 9% at this point. after about 15 minutes i knew i was fucked for relying on her. i go to the front doors again and start banging on them as people go by. they are really solid doors and you probably cant hear much from the other side.

eventually this guy who obviously isn't natively english see's me and i explain to him i'm locked inside. this guy's first language obviously isn't english but in 30 seconds he can understand what born-and-bred-british-julie couldnt in like 3 minutes of explaining to her my situation.

i ask him to go around the back as i remember steve having his window open, and to shout for them to come downstairs. he says "ok no problem" and disappears. i've been stuck at this point for about 45-50 minutes.

i suddenly hear a voice on my phone which is bordering on 4% and has been on hold for god knows how long. this is claire, julie said you need my help? 

why the fuck has julie gone and spoken to claire?! i asked her to ring steve, not bring another witness into this whole debacle. 

i explain to claire whats happened, tell her im bordering on 2% battery now and i need her to ring steve who is at his fucking desk right now".

just as i saw this and i've lost all hope - that guy who disappeared around the corner comes back and says "they are coming dont worry!".

he managed to get steves attention and steve comes downstairs opening the security doors.

"jesus i thought you went home ages ago" he says. "no - i didnt realise your reception locked these damn front doors" i say.

i tell claire not to worry just as my phones about to die at this point as steves here.

TIFU by getting locked in at work.
