NBR - Embarassing work moment - funny

JMCAVC · March 2010

OK so we're waiting on an attorney for an important conference call and he is nowhere to be found (he's usually very good about appointments). We tried paging him a few times and walked around the office to no avail. I told the client we'd call back and then I tried the his cell phone. I hear it ring in the distance and when he answered, I realized that he was in the bathroom (I could hear the echo!). I must have turned 5 shades of red and said "Hi, um (realizing where he was), oh I'm so sorry, I'll tell the client you're stuck in a meeting...." Of course when he finally calls the client I could hear him saying that he was stuck in a meeting a little longer than he planned. I had to bite my toung not to say "yeah, he was meeting with John."

Hope this made some of you laugh today!
