Instant regret
Ok, so last summer, I started work at the flu service phone line, my only job was to go though a questionnaire with people to see if they had swine flu, and to give them a code for medicine if they did.

Some of you may remember the media coverage saying how staff basically did nothing for 8 hours a day, due to lack of calls. This is fairly accurate as we would get less the 8 calls a shift, so did very little work. As a result we needed to fill in the time some how. Poker sets were brought in, monopoly, scrabble, and the ever popular Pictionary.

It was during a game of Pictionary that, by some miracle, I and a girl I was rather into were the only too players not on a call. I quickly decided now was the right time for a romantic gesture.

I drew an arrow on my sheet of paper and said "its a movie, two words" then I pointed the arrow at her. The answer was pretty woman, which seemed so charming and smooth, but as soon as she started guessing I began to regret it. It wasn’t charming at all, it was creepy and weird and very much the actions of a social misfit. As she began to give up, I racked my brain for any movie I could think of to take its place, but alas, no. I cringed as I admitted the film. Her face was a picture of awkwardness. "Awwwww, thanks." came the rather forced reply.

I got the last laugh though, turns out she was a compulsive liar, telling us she was a medical student despite being rather dim, that she had an identical twin who tried to overdose on coke after getting breast cancer and that she had just got a car, despite never driving.
