Ladies and gennelmen, a confession. Today... i was a t**t

I was chatting to one of the drivers who comes regularly to our works, who told me that he was in a great deal of pain from sunburn. We'd been chatting for a few minutes as I made up his paperwork, and I was sympathetic, and offered to go raid our first aid cupboard for some burn cream, but he said no thanks, he was already covered in the stuff. But *this* shoulder, he said, pointing, was particularly painful. As one does when somebody points, I glanced at the offending shoulder, and saw a medium-sized bug ambling up his hi-viz vest.

I didn't quite kill it with the right-hand slap, and couldn't land the follow-up with the left because Mr Driver had performed a yelping backward somersault. He then punched a wall and called me quite a lot of inventive names. I was very apologetic but couldn't stop laughing, and had to explain that I wasn't laughing at his agony but at how damn stupid I'd been, to break off in mid-sentence about his sunburn and slap him on it.

What a t**t. But I'm still chuckling now......
