I think we all need a little humor in our lives....so I'm going to take a moment and review a moment in my life; hope it makes you laugh:
So the other day I went in to work and my boss gave me a list of people I needed to call to inform them about a glitch in our system when they registered for a conference. Excited for something to do, I took the list and immediately picked up the phone to start calling. To get out off campus, I have to dial 9 first. If I'm calling long distance, I then have to dial 1 before the area code and number. I did so, but my finger stayed a little too long on 1 and it ended up going twice. Now, I'm not sure if you've ever tried that before, but immediately after you dial 911, no matter what you do after, it rings right to the emergency line and there's no going back. So, knowing that they would just call back to see if everything was alright anyways, I just hung up. Moments passed and no call came in. I started to get hopeful, maybe they never even received the call :) ... Ah, too soon, the boss over the whole department came into the office and asked if anyone dialed 911. OOPS! I swear my face got as red as a tomato as I sheepishly muttered that I had on accident. He asked if everything was ok, I responded yes, and he left to go tell the emergency operator who had called him.
Oh man! I felt so dumb right then. In front of the department head! Oh my, oh my! :S
I wish I had been there for that
