That Awkward Moment When.

It's never really a good thing when you get a message from your boss to your phone that says,

"So. Hi Julie. It's [insert name of boss].  I was just calling because, um, well, you see, I made a mistake. I kind of screwed up a lot. This is awkward. No, oh no, I mean, don't worry about it. It's nothing bad for you, it's good for you really! Just please give me a call whenever you get a chance...Oh..."

Fairly confident that was almost his message exactly. He's a gem.  I got this message, and I was a little bit concerned. What could this message possibly mean?

Seeing as I had no choice but to call him back, I called him back.
Then we faced the awkward moment and awkward phone conversation when he had to tell me he forgot that he hired me, and forgot that I had already worked hours, and so he hadn't put me on the pay roll.  And so therefore, I needed to come in and pick up my paycheck.

I didn't mind him calling me to tell me I was getting paid.  But it was a little beyond awkward knowing he had literally forgotten that I was working there even though I had been there every day for about a week.
Cool. Glad that happened.
