Everyone has had a bad day at the office... but this may take the top prize. This American Airlines flight attendant spilled an entire tray of drinks she was serving onto the company's CEO last week.

Talk about a bad day...

According to Thrillist, before an American Airlines flight from Phoenix to Dallas took off, the crew were alerted that the company's CEO Doug Parker would be on board.

However, things didn't quite pan out as planned for Peters, because just as she was offering beverages to the passengers in first class, someone bumped her from behind, and sent the full tray of drinks flying all over the CEO.

Story time y’all! Incase you missed it. The other day I was working a flight to Dallas. I had our CEO (Doug Parker) on my flight. I was serving drinks during boarding to the first class cabin. I had a full tray with drinks on it, when the passenger in front of me stops in the aisle and backs up. He bumps into the tray and the drinks go flying. Guys I have worked for American Airlines for 4 years, and not once have I ever spilt a drink on a passenger. Guess who they land on. Half of them went all over me, the other half in Doug’s lap. I WAS MORTIFIED. I wanted to drop dead right there in the aisle. (Like am I still employed?!) I’m still slightly traumatized/embarrassed. Luckily he was super cool, and a good sport about it. He later came back and we chatted for a little, and joked about it the rest of the flight. When he was getting off the plane he told me he’d never forget me.... guess that’s a good thing right? Most people never even meet their CEO let alone shower them with beverages. But it’s too good of a story not to tell. Accidents happen. 🤷🏼‍♀️ OOPS
