RE: MY BIGGEST FIRST-JOB BLUNDER

in #steemit8 years ago

I love the McDonald's model.

Yes, I also made a big or funny blunder at my first job. Here in SA we have a Afrikaans newspaper ''Die Burger'' that mean The Citizen in Engels. One day I was at the head office of the business and the MD of the company ask me to buy 3 Burgers. So I went off the McDonalds and bought 3 burgers. I walked into the boardroom where 3 directors where having a meeting. I then said here is your burgers. The MD started laughing and said to the Burger newspaper not the hamburgers. LOL

Sort:  

LOL.. that is hilarious man. My dad used to be a journalist at Die Burger and then he got sent to Washington DC to be the foreign correspondent there for the media company Nasionale Pers (now called Naspers). He gave me this sweater that had the words Die Burger on it. So the Americans thought it was kind of weird that I wanted burgers to die....

Very funny too. :)

Hehe thanks for the comment and vote!!
