I just got on a webinar. I figured I would pass some time since I’ve been at the airport for so long and still have another hour until we board. I was sure my earphones were plugged into the computer and no one else could hear me. I was minding my own business watching it.
A woman came over to me and asked me to turn down the sound of my computer.
“We can all hear you and it’s very loud.”
I noticed the gay little man at the next table kind of smirk in agreement.
I wanted to be embarrassed, make her wrong, and run away.
But, instead, I said, “Oh, thank you, I thought it was on my headphones. Thank you.” And I was fine.
OK, that’s a bald faced lie. If I was fine, I would be back listening to the webinar instead of typing this.
I’m really trying not to make her wrong. I do want to hate her for embarrassing me, but I am going to eventually move on and pay attention to the webinar again.
Anyway, thanks for listening. I just needed to upgrade myself and be present again.
