A week ago, during dinner, I was scrolling thru Instagram as usual and stumbled on a meme that cracked me up.
It was Staring Avatar Guy:
"Selfish? How much?"
I wanted to send it to my friend, but instead I accidentally sent it to my boss’s work account.
When I realized, my heart dropped. He’s super serious, professional and twice my age. We barely text outside of work and he usually keeps things formal and straight to the point. I tried to delete it fast, but ofc it was already seen. I thought I’d have to start packing my stuff at work the next day.
But then… he liked it. And sent me back the same meme with the caption:
"Cell Phone? Yeah, some stores do that"
Besides feeling huge relief, I realized he’s more chill than I thought.
Now we sometimes send memes to each other. Can’t believe I went from thinking I was screwed to having a meme buddy at work lol
TL;DR: Sent a dumb meme to my boss by accident, thought I was screwed, now we meme buddies.
