008 with Accidental Audio

[There is a click of a device being turned on and the sound of scuffling bodies.]

"Ah tell yoouuz, ah'm fine," the voice is male, definitely inebriated and slurring badly. Not a voice anyone would recognize."Sir, we've tested your blood and you have consumed a dangerous level of alcohol. As the doctor explained, we need to pump your stomach,"

Humans.

Why did you let him ruin your shoes?

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

Because I was holding him up on the bed so he wouldn't land in a heap on the floor.

The shoes will wash.

audio;

[itextedyou]

So will he. And if he sleeps a night on the linoleum, perhaps he will learn his lesson.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

I know, as washing him is part of my job.

True but the bump he would have gotten on his head if I'd let him hit the floor would have opened us up to a lawsuit.

audio;

[itextedyou]

Mmm. So litigious.

They should hire better lawyers.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

Now, now. I didn't say he'd win the lawsuit but the paperwork is a pain and then there would be a 'safety memo' and just not worth the headache.

How are you doing tonight, Eric?

audio;

[itextedyou]

Your profession is strange.

Bored. Hungry. It took me four hours to find my way upstairs for some reason. Thankfully I am not easily frustrated and do not readily bemoan a loss of time.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

Not the first time I've been told that.

Bored and hungry is never a good combination for you, though four hours, really?

audio;

[itextedyou]

You disagree. Obviously.

I happen to think that boredom and hunger make me both more charming and more tolerant than usual.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

Oh I agree totally.

When does humble kick in again?

audio;

[itextedyou]

Humility is a very political emotion, Thom. Useless except for when it is required to prove a point.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

In other words, something to be put on briefly for show but not a fashion you subscribe to as a regular thing?

audio;

[itextedyou]

For the most part.

The behavior has served me well thus far.

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

As has the charming, I imagine.

Since you profess to be in a tolerant mood, I might have to come raid Fangtasia's excellent kitchen and wine cellar after work. It might even help you with the boredom as you can point and laugh at the fine figure I cut in green scrubs with little surgical booties on my feet.

audio;

[itextedyou]

As has the charming.

We wouldn't be a very good business if we didn't serve the public when it wanted serving, now would we?

audio;

[thatsmyjob]

For all I know you might have a 'no shoes no service' policy, in which case I'd be shit out of luck.
