I work in an inbound call centre. I was helping a little old lady with an issue she had regarding her grandson’s school. At the end of the call:

Old Lady: “Thank you so much for all your help.”

Me: “You’re a problem.”

I was going to say, “You’re welcome and it’s not a problem,” but I guess I had a brain fart.

I managed to apologise and explain myself before ending the call, but I’ll never forget this embarrassing moment.

My mum, dad, and a friend were sitting at the bar at their local pub when some d****ebag came up and decided to wind up my mum. She told him to stop. He didn’t stop.

My dad and their friend quickly picked up their drinks and moved to a table, leaving my mum and the d****ebag at the bar.

A pub regular and his friend had watched the scene unfold and joined my dad and his friend at their table as soon as they sat down.

Regular: “Why did you two move?”

Before my dad could respond, his friend replied:

Friend: “I’m not gonna be there when she spills his blood.”

Thankfully, the d****ebag got the picture after a couple of other regulars intervened and politely escorted him from the pub.
