Once when I was in retail for a large store. I was the "manager on call". At the time, that meant I had a pager and I had a walkie talkie on my waistband.. Not to mention the big name tag with my name, and Manager in Big letters.
I was assisting a employee with a register, while answering the ringing phone, while my pager and walkie are calling out my name..
A customer walks up and asks me, "Do YOU work here?" I just started laughing.. Another customer told the lady, "no she JUST grabbed someone elses name tag and is just prtending to know how to use the regester and answer the phones. I could have kissed that man on the lips.
My own lunacy was one day I was in my truck and could not find my cell phone. I was freaking out!
I dumped my purse out on the seat.. Looked through all of my pockets.Looked through my work bag that has all of my supplies and tools.
I got out of the truck and looked under the seats, between the seats.. I was so upset.. Then I realized, I was talking on the cell phone to my business partner the entire time.
I am an idiot.. sometimes.. ok, too many times.
