funny work story time

So we are giving away candy bars at work for people who fill out a survey for us. It's really a good tatic to use because not a lot of them were coming in until we started to hand out these candies. Now there are almost too many of them. We once had this guy a while back come in that just made me want to laugh so hard. He desperately wanted a candy bar (I do admit they are quite tempting). But he couldn't fill out the survey because it wouldn't be relavent. Anyways, he comes in and says "how do i get a candy bar?" This was quite sudden for his first words. I then told him he needed to be graduating and then had to take the survey in order to obtain the little treat but he couldn't take the survey cause he wasnt graduating. Very saddened, he walked out of the office without his beloved candy bar.

Another story that comes to mind is when I had a conversation of HIs with this guy over the phone. I had put him on hold to ask someone a question and then resuming the call I said "hi". He contered with "hi". I don't know why I did this but I said "hi again". This started a battle of HIs. I wasn't sure how to stop the HI fest so after saying quite a few I just continued on to answer his question. This was hard to do, however, because my boss and coworker were behind me laughing about the HI battle which made me want to laugh too. Let's just say that the whole walk home from work I couldnt help but have a huge grin on my face.

Also, I once answered the phone during work and forgot where I was. My opening line sounded more like a question than a hello. Afterwards, my coworker laughed at me for the phone call and has yet to forget about it. But I do admit it was pretty funny. So there are just a few funny stories of my work so far in COLLEGE LIFE.
