Female voice: (pause) then why did you ask to take a message?

Ha! Sounds like my day:

Me: (sitting in meeting room at 10)

Co-worker: Do you have this room booked?

Me: Yes, I think so. (checks calendar...checks email confirmations...checks calendar again)

Co-worker: Are you sure? Because I have it too.

Me: I'm pretty sure I have it. See here? On my calendar?

Co-worker: Weird.

(5 minutes of checking emails and calendars)

Me: Oh. My meeting isn't for another hour. I'm a big dork.

I think one of my worst moments like that was when I worked graveyard at IBM, and got a phone call at home:

"IBM AIX support this is Dominic, how can I help you?"

Yeah. It was bad.
