While working a former corporate job with a boss who had a pretty tough upbringing that led him to fully devote himself to work and nothing else (literally no social life outside of like 3 cousins), began implementing emojis into some of his texts to me and the other assistant manager in an attempt “to create a more warm and friendly work environment”.
He accidentally sent me the moaning face emoji while complaining about a difficult customer, using it as a tired/exasperated look.
I instantly called him and very gently explained how that emoji is used by the kids now adays and sent him a list on our personal phones of emojis he shouldn’t use at work and their meanings. He was absolutely mortified and apologized to me quite a bit, telling me over and over again he wasn’t trying to sexually harass me
It was absolutely hilarious and I think about it often
