This morning I had to go into work to show my temporary replacement the administrative work I’ll need done (while I’m out with a broken hand). This was our introduction...
Replacement: “Hi, my name is Jay Vega”
Me:(super nerd) “Is Jay short for James?”
Me: “Can I can you James?”
My Captain (who understands my nerdness): “You are not calling him James Vega”
Replacement: “I don’t mind.”
Captain: “she is being a nerd. Don’t mind her”
Replacement: “You know, I’m actually a LT just like you. So technically you can call me Lieutenant James Vega.” *winks*
Captain: *rolls eyes* “Great...”
