MisunderstoodMy other half rang a courier today to get a disc sent over to a client. The courier company asked what it was she was sending. "A computer disc", she said.
Half an hour later, 3 blokes in a van turned up. They looked a little disappointed to be handed a floppy disc: they were all prepared to shift a computer desk across London.
Have you been utterly misunderstood recently?

I don't think he did it on purpose but....I used to work with a bloke called Mark who never listened properly to anyone which resulted in some fantastic if not that amusing mishearings.
Other bloke: "I was really shocked and embarrassed"
Mark: "What? you were putting lead shot in barrow's!" wtf?
Me about another colleague who was away on holiday with his wife: "He's gone to Cyprus with Jan"
Mark: "What? He's gone cycling round Japan!"
Like I said I don't think he did it on purpose, and sometimes it was funny, but christ its annoying when you have to repeat yourself all the time.
