taking things too literal aka stupid moments
0
i've been working at a restaurant for the past few months. i usually never work as a cocktail server at the sports bar downstairs so i never trained in opening or closing. at closing:
bartender: "can you take down (she means unplug) the christmas lights in the back"
me: "is there a switch or do i actually take them down (i mean physically take them down)"
bartender: "no switch, just take them down (as in unplug them)"
me 2 mins later: "are you sure..."
bartender: "yeah, just take a chair and take them down"
30 minutes later i come back covered in cobwebs with two sets of christmas lights that decorated the back of the bar. now the christmas lights don't work anymore, apparently i broke something when i was taking them down.
chances are that in six months these people won't remember my name, but they sure as hell will remember the girl who took down and broke the christmas lights.
anyway, i was wondering if you guys have ever had moments like this. if so, please share. if not, you are too damn perfect.

I was working on some vinyl for some boat lettering with REAL GOLD vinyl, and I fucked it up while I was supposed to weed it...
That was a hundred something dollar mistake...
As for taking something too literal, I know Ive done that in the past alot, but nothing comes to mind atm...

I rarely have this problem.
Mostly because I like to know exactly what someone wants me to do no matter what.
The only time I can think of, is when I didn't have a lot of sleep. And instead of putting three cups of something, I took three of the measuring cup of it.
I have no idea why.
