on the first day of my new job, i was quite nervous and awkward. i was out of touch from corporate america for roughly two months. i was settling in at my desk, rearranging the set up of my stapler, phone, post-it notes, etc. when my boss comes up to me and asks me if i know what a v-card is. me, being immature, mind in gutter 24/7, stifled a laugh, and pretended to go on that i knew what it was and thinking, no, he's not talking about virginity... i dont think i was pulling it off that well because i somehow ended up saying it was a wireless adapter installed in your computer (i dont know where that came from). he looked at my strangely and told me it was for my contact info. on outlook.. OH YES. DUH, brain fart. i was so side-tracked thinking of the many posts from TFLN referring to some douche frat guy taking the freshman girls' v-cards. i didnt even remotely think of outlook or a job related term. go figure.
ok back to my point, roughly 3 months later, meaning today, he calls me into his office asking if i knew what a blue moon was. i quick answered, a little too eagerly, "yes! its a beer. i love blue moon." ::silence:: apparently, my boss was referring to an actual blue moon. when there is a full moon at the end and at the beginning of the new month so two moons exists on the same night. i guess this just happened last weekend. whoops.
now, im pretty sure my boss thinks im an alcoholic that takes the short bus to work.
