I walked to the coffee machine to get some hot water for tea this morning. On the way, I ran into our general manager and struck up conversation with him. It was going great until our IT manager walked into the break room.
"Mind if embarrass you?" he asked.
The first thing that popped into my head was that he would be overly-complimentary of the job I've done with building our company websites.
"Do you bank at *** Bank?" he asked.
"Yes."
"Do you bring a lot of coins to that bank? Like, a TON of coins?" he asked.
So I give the general gist of it to the two of them, and all was smiled about and good. But...really? The teller saw that he worked at the same company as me, probably based on his attire, and decided to bring up not only me but the business I perform at the bank. And the IT manager brought it up in front of my boss's boss.
Not cool on a few levels, but I'm definitely not going to say anything about it to the bank. Why? Because I don't want to mess up my relationship with this bank, which has many branches across the city, and who just happen to be my largest pick-up bank across three different branches.
Yeah...that was my morning...
