This goes back to the mid 70's, but I was a young guy in the HQ office of a privately owned company. The owner saw that I had a few journalism credits from school and told me he wanted me to start a monthly company newsletter, full color, to be mailed to all employees. OK, sounds like fun.

On about the 3rd issue I went to a big company dinner and took a lot of pics of the boss and his wife handing out awards, his wife was a very attractive lady, about 40. Next newsletter issue I put several of the pics in an article about the dinner. It wasn't until the newsletters were all mailed that the boss comes in my little office red in the face mad, I had not noticed, nor had my proofreader or the printer, that one of boss's wife's nipples could be seen in one of the pics. It was a side view, her blouse and bra were loose and there it was, nippage. When it was pointed out it was obvious.

Anyway, there was nothing that could be done, I couldn't go to every employees house over a 4 state area and retrieve the newsletter and that would just attract attention to her pretty little nipple. Luckily it seems no one else noticed or no one else said they noticed, so I didn't get fired, but boss checked the proofs of every issue from then on. I didn't get a bonus that year, unless you count seeing boss wife's nipple a bonus.

Last week I was watching Seinfeld reruns and there was one where Elaine's Christmas cards showed her nipple, my wife reminded me of this story from my past.
