Being told off as an adultWhen was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

can't really be arsed.I have a "Lady" who's in the chain of command above me... she'a bit large.
Now.. This might come off as a sizist comment, or an anti-fat slur... you may all be thinking "Rounded is good" and you may well be right.. But this lass is big. BIG! Benny Hill in the original Italian job would have cowered in fear.
If she were one inch taller, she'd be perfectly round.
Anyhow.. Size aside, she's a terrible engineer. She has no idea what the project needs and only cares about the time-plan (the rest of us like to actually end up with something that works).... I digress.
She has a horrible habit of putting her hand on your shoulder when she talks. I'm most sure if it's her attempt at "owning" her subordinates or trying to be motherly, but The end result is laughable. This coupled with her VERY LOUD way of talking means that most people just shut up and listen.
Recently she interrupted me by putting her hand on my shoulder and starting to "talk"..
"You're not my girlfriend are you?"
"definately not!!!"
"Then will you PLEASE stop touching me all the time!"
It was made worth while by the fact that her managers were with us at the time. =)
PS... HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEGLESS!!!
