Yesterday I went to get my work papers processed in the west loop. The process was fairly easy considering I had already had my TB test, drug test, fingerprinting, etc. complete. One of the last things I had to do was get my work ID picture taken. I sat in the chair and the girl took the picture. She looked at the picture, noticing my eyes were closed and said, "Are you a blinker?", to which I replied, "No, I just have small eyes!" and laughed at my own joke. Well, I am pretty sure she either didn't think it was funny or I made her feel really uncomfortable. I think it was funny! What do you think?
i vote funny, but maybe that's because i'm also asian
ReplyDeleteI think you're funny too, and not just because you're Asian!
ReplyDeleteum, your eyes are clearly open. she must not be used to taking asians' pictures... i vote funny!
ReplyDeleteNext time just say, "Yes, I'm a blinker, but it's usually only noticeable when I'm turning."
ReplyDeletehaha Scott! At least it's better than my UC ID. You asked me if I wanted to look in the mirror first and I said, "no". BIG mistake!
