Overheard... And Concurred
As a reminder this post, will tell you why the below conversations made me smile (even though I wasn't a part of them) .
A Coworker of mine: "August is my enemy-month. As soon as September 1st arrives, I feel like a huge weight has lifted off my chest. I just have to make it through August."
Picture two Price Chopper employees enjoying a smoke in the parking lot, bending over and looking at something.
Employee 1: "What is that?"
Employee 2: "That's a cicada!"
E1: "A what?"
E2: "A cicada! Don't you hear that 'eeeerrrronnnnng, eeeeeeronnnnng'? Didn't you wonder where that was coming from? I tell you, that's how you know it's really hot. You hear that 'eeerrrrronnnnng' and you know. It's really hot."
Oh, Snap
Worker at a coffee shop I (used to) frequent: "You look really great today! Are you wearing a lot of makeup?"
EDITING NOTE: I no longer go to that coffee shop, but this is because of geographic logistics... not because the above comment offended me. I enjoy a misplaced statement as much as the next person, and I thought this one was delightful.

ReplyDeleteI was showing Leah wedding pictures. "Oh my gosh," she gushed. "You look so different... you look so pretty!" Um, thanks? Your last story reminded me of that! ;)
ReplyDeleteI am with your co-worker. I'm claiming August as my enemy month, too!!
