    I had a bit of a scare at work recently. My manager discovered that I was job searching after I accidentally sent my updated resume to our team Slack instead of my personal email. It was a complete oversight on my part. I’ve been quietly looking for new opportunities for a while now because, while I like my team, the work has become pretty stale after three years, and I’ve been overlooked for promotions twice without much feedback. On Thursday, I was at my desk finalizing my resume and meant to email it to myself to print later. Unfortunately, I mixed up the windows and sent it to the 'team-general' channel, which includes my manager, her manager, and my entire team. I realized my mistake just moments after hitting send and quickly recalled the message, but I know at least some people saw the filename 'Resume_2026_Final.pdf' before it disappeared. I sat there in shock for about ten minutes, unsure of what to do. Since then, my manager hasn’t mentioned it at all, which has left me anxious. I’m not sure if she didn’t see it, is pretending not to, or is just waiting for the right moment to bring it up. It’s been a stressful few days, and I’ve learned my lesson about keeping work and personal tasks separate. I definitely need to be more careful moving forward.
