A Conversation With My Boss

Boss: "...So anyway, she was a tea seller, and she made us bring virgin pots to brew the tea in."

Staff: "Virgin pots?"

Boss: "Yeah, virgin pots, you know, pots that haven't been used before."

Staff: "Why can't you brew tea in a pot that has a little experience under it's belt?"

Boss: "You can. But she seemed to think that unless it was a virgin pot, it would taint the tea."

Staff: "A non-virgin pot would taint the tea."

Boss: "And nobody wants tainted tea. That's not the kind of teabag you want."


This is why I love my job, people.

That conversation is so loaded with innuendo it's about to explode.

The conversation actually took quite some time to have, as nobody could stop laughing long enough to spit out a sentence.

Oh one of those many fun moments i miss out on!!! To hear "Boss" say "taint" and "teabag" in association with a customer would have been priceless.
