We’ve all been there: from hitting “reply all” on a private email to having one too many at after-work drinks, your job can be a minefield for embarrassing situations. So whether you got stuck in the revolving doors or tripped over in front of the entire office – we want to hear your biggest work mishaps.

What happened? How did you deal with the situation? Is there anything you wish you could have done differently? And how has it affected your confidence and work?

Whether you accidentally lost the office pet or crashed into your manager after too many cocktails – we want you to share your biggest mistakes.

You can submit your contributions anonymously using the online form below, from Thursday 4 May until midnight on Thursday 18 May. We will publish an edited selection on the Guardian Careers site, and contributions may also be shared across our social media channels.

To get in touch fill in the encrypted form below – you won’t need to give us your name or the name of where you work – and we’ll publish a selection of responses. Please give us as much detail about your experience as you can, but only include identifying details if you are happy to have them published.
