This is a legitimate question as I am beginning to think A. I am blond (no offence to actual blond people) or B. I just like to do dumb things in public. I went back to work today and I was on the express lane. I was running low on $1's and $5's. But I also did not have a lot of $20's to turn in for change. But I had a $100 dollar bill. OK, I knew I needed 40 ones. We have a code we type into our register. It sends a signal to the CSM's handheld device telling them who needs what. Well I put in that I needed 4 fives. Then my mind went blank. I could not for the life of me think what else I might need or what to type in. So I just left it like that. Here comes my CSM. I told her, I have a hundred dollar bill and I couldn't figure out what I needed! First, I thought she was going to go into convulsions from laughing. She went and got me extra fives. Then later in the day I needed quarters, dimes, nickles and pennies. She brought them to me, I threw them in the drawer. My next customer, when I went to get her change, my drawer was stuck.
And if that wasn't enough of my brainlessness here is another one. John asked for a ride to class since we were both leaving at 5. We had punched out and we were leaving the back room. I pushed on the door and it wouldn't open. So I pushed on the other door. I looked at the doors and said, what the? John is looking at me with one eyebrow raised, trying not to laugh. Then he leans forward, grabs the handle and says, it helps if you PULL the door open. It would have to be him who observed this as it is only ammunition for him to pick on me further.
But we had a nice chat in the car. I asked about his girlfriend, which he is not too sure about at this point. Then he asked why I asked, did I have someone in mind for him. I told him no, I don't match-make. The one time I tried to fix up my older son with a girl, she turned out to be a lesbian. I told John this and told him if I ever tell him I have a girl for him he should run as fast as he can.
Thank God I am off tomorrow and Friday. I blame the flu for my crazy antics today. My brain must not have recovered fully. But hey, at least I make people laugh!
