#2041

Years ago, I had just started a new job as a general manager at an optical. We did inventory quarterly, and it was a very complex affair involving alot of small items. It was my first inventory, and I was told the two department managers had it down pat, and not to worry, I would be ok. On 4/1 (inventory day) we closed early, set up the terminals, got out our clipboards ... and the two managers got into a huge screaming fight. One stormed out, and the other ran to the bathroom crying, and I stood there with my mouth hanging open, holding my clipboard. For almost a minute. Then they came back hysterical laughing screaming "APRIL FOOLS". I didn't know if I wanted to hug them or slap them, lol. Good times.

I had five people trailing me in search of the final shamrock.
