#47: The Two Robs
This person shared one of her most shameful moments with the world of Twitter, and we appreciate her for it. This story probably wasn’t easy to share, and we totally understand how embarrassing it must have felt. She shared a story about how she used to work at a store with a boss named Rob. One day, she got a phone call from someone asking for Rob, but she thought their voice sounded drawn out and breathy. The guy on the phone kept asking for Rob, and eventually said their own name was also Rob.
At this point, she got frustrated and figured it was her boss prank calling her at work. Turns out, the call was from the boss’s friend whose name was also Rob. His voice sounded different because he had suffered a stroke recently and had a hard time speaking. She felt so ashamed for hanging up on a stroke victim that she still feels embarrassed by it to this day. Even though it technically wasn’t her fault because she didn’t know, we can understand why she would still feel like that all these years later.
