    "May I have your number please?" *two seconds later to the SAME CUSTOMER* "May I have your number please?" *few seconds later TO THE SAME CUSTOMER* "How may I help you?" -> Their groceries are already packed and all they have to do is pay.

    *head/desk*

    I HATE long orders because I'm more likely to zone out and forget what the hell I'm doing. Thank goodness I only work in a grocery store. If I had an important job this could be serious.

    When I get within striking distance to throttling a coworker, then I know it's time to hide for a few days.

    For me this depends on a co-worker. Going one step further could be considered 'thinning the herd'.

    "do plastic spoons go bad? and if they do, is it just the spoons, why not all utensils?"

    "did I forget my keys at home?" while driving down the road

    there was another one but I cant remember, probably another sign I need to get the eff out of here.

    When you've worked at the same building for 3 years with the same code to get in, punch in the code incorrect so many times it locks you out. Standing at the doorway with your head hung from shame, waiting for the security guard to come let you in....:yawn:

    When you're so sick of looking at the project you've been working on for months that you spend most of your day on MFP.

    The other morning I was in such a hurry and must have been spacing out, that when I went to heat up the kids' oatmeal, I forgot to put the bowl in the microwave first. It went thru the whole heating cycle, beeped, I opened the door and was like, "Where the eff is the oatmeal?!" Turned around and it was sitting on the counter.


    hahahahahahaha yo should book one right away!

    This morning I started driving to work and forgot to drop off my daughter, who was in the back seat, at school. Even when she noticed we were going the wrong way she didn't make a sound. I pulled up to a stop sign, looked in the rear view mirror and saw her and said,"Oh crap". She just looked at me as said, "Am I going to school today?"
    Also, this might be TMI.... but I am wearing my oldest daughter's underwear because I grabbed the wrong pair out of the clean clothes basket and was in too much of a hurry to bother going back to find my own even if these are a little too small.

    When you can't remember the names of any of the last 3 patients you just saw..............



    When you can't remember any of your patient's names...or why they're at the hospital lol
    or
    When I'm at home and can't figure out why none of my phone calls are going through, then I realize I'm dialing 9 first every time like I have to at work.
    last one
    When I accomplish something at home, I walk over to my computer to make a note of it (the saying at work is, if it wasn't documented, it wasn't done)
