My first job in a smallish technical helpdesk
I was on a call to a particularly surly gentleman with a particularly surly problem (the details escape me now,) as I frantically tried to Google my way to the relative freedom of the next call I got somewhat lost in reading up MSDN articles and consequently lost in thought.

As a result I had forgotten that I had not in fact put him on mute so he wouldn't hear me muttering in thought and he was still listening waiting for me to deliver a magical solution out of my Google shaped tech-anus, when a particularly attractive red head who had just joined walked past into the next office section.

Enchanted by her lithesome figure, resplendant beauty and how just by walking by me she had brought a real ray of sunshine to a typically drab day I broke out into the opening bars of Stevie Wonders "Isn't She Lovely."

I got about 2 lines in before a stern voice barked out "I'd prefer if you didn't sing to me."
