Prob skipping lunch, going to Ruth Chris steakhouse for dinner with a work vendor which means they pay
Like, 2 weeks after I started at my current job, I tagged along for lunch with a vendor and other members on our team. Mostly because, of course, that means the vendor is paying.
This vendor worked for our offshore resources, so he was Indian. And man, this guy had the thick Indian accent. So we're at lunch, and he's talking to the team manager, who had just bought a house on a decent sized plot of land, adjacent to some woods. And the vendor says
"
Oh, you're going to have to watch out for wild animals!"
Except, I could barely understand what he said, and his "wild animals" sounded like "violent emails". And clearly, I wasn't the only one. Because the team manager is sitting there with a puzzled look on his face, and repeats back...
"Violent emails?"
Dude, I fucking lost it. Me and this one other guy at this table of like 10 people. Like, had to get up and leave because I was laughing so hard I was crying. It was just the say the team manager had the quizzical look on his face, and actually repeated back
"Violent emails?"...
I felt like such an asshole.
