Just a drinker with a keyboard. Let's see what happens.

Awkward office conversation #1.

Dude with the unfortunate job of having to input people’s information for some reason: Hey, would you know where these guys in our London office are from?

Me:  (persuing list) Oh, these guys? [First guy] was born in Greece, although I think he’s a UK citizen now. [Second guy] was born in South Africa.

Dude with the unfortunate job of having to input people’s information for some reason:  Ok. (writes down information on first guy) So, [second guy] is from South Africa?

Me: Don’t know his citizenship now, but he was born there.

Dude with the unfortunate job of having to input people’s information for some reason: So, I can put him down as being African-American?

Me: Technically… (Awkwardly pauses to see if this dude isn’t kidding. It’s an old-ass joke done by Charlize Theron in a SNL monologue. But this guy can’t be serious, right. Right? Shit, he’s serious. He going to walk out of this room and put him in whatever system as African-American. Now realizes need to say something) …well, uh, he’s actually white.

Dude with the unfortunate job of having to input people’s information for some reason: (stunned) Oh. Screw it, I’ll just put him in the system as American, then. (walks away)

(I shake head and return to printing forms.)
