He’s really short.
From 2005 to 2008 I maintained a blog about my experiences working in the drug test industry. Every Sunday I revive one of those experiences here. The following was originally posted March 3, 2006.
He’s really short.
It occurs to me that someone could read my blog and come away with the impression that I either never make mistakes, or that I make them all the time and blame them on other people. However, I made what is possibly the stupidest, most embarrassing mistake of my entire life just the other day.
I’m filling out this gentleman’s form. His first name is Gary, and his last name starts with “Co” and ends with “n”. Without thinking, on reflex alone I write “Gary Coleman” on my form.
Really, that’s the whole story. What else do I need to say about it?
The guy was like six feet tall, and wasn’t black. Nevertheless, he wasn’t pleased.
Extremely lol-worthy material.
