CoWorker 1: I don’t know what I’m going to do. But the next time I get paid, I’m going to do something strange and weird with it.
CoWorkers 2: Really? Strange and weird?
CoWorker 1: Okay, maybe not weird, but definitely strange. There’s a difference?
I work in a law office. Had Two women come in a young one and an older lady.. the older lady said in a heavy country accent:
Older Lady: “Now shes deaf (Pronouncing “deaf” with two syllables as in “Day-eef” she pointed to the younger lady) and Im going to be her interpreter”
Me: Ok, that will be fine
Older Lady: Ok I will Interpret
Me: Yes maam
After explaining every aspect of what the younger lady needed to do with the situation at hand, The older lady says:
“Ok I’ll interpret now”
Me: yes maam
She then turned to the Deaf women and in a booming voice.. Yells at the top of her lungs..
HE SAID.. YOU GOTTA….
I about fell out of my chair..
Male coworker: I’m taking a Zumba class at the gym tonight.
Female coworker, deadpan: Isn’t that what women do?
Male coworker, ignoring: They have this one thing where they make you link arms, and everyone is all covered in sweat.
Female coworker, still deadpan: You’re going to get ringworm.
Client: Hi. I’m just calling to see what size you made the new releases
poster you just sent me?
Me: I made it 30 x 40, as requested.
Client: Welllllllll, the proof I just received isn’t 30 x 40. It’s only 7 inches
wide.
Me: Really? That’s odd. wrong> In which program did you open the file I sent you?
Client: Adobe (meaning Acrobat)
Me: Hmmm….and Acrobat says that it’s 7 inches wide?
Client: Well, I think so. I don’t know. I just held a ruler up to my screen
and it was only 7 inches wide.
