Not What I Meant
Uncategorized February 6th, 2008
The other day…
*Phone rings*
Me: Mattlaw…(that’s how I answer my phone at work)
Guy on phone: Hey, it’s NAME NAME from COMPANY COMPANY. Do you have a sec?
Me: Sure, I have plenty of secs.
Guy on phone: Well, um, that’s good to know. Anyway…
Me: No, no… s-e-c-s, as in the plural of a second.
(You may have to read the “Sure, I have plenty…” line out loud to understand why I’m posting this example of why I try to avoid the phone at all costs.)
