Maybe I should get a hearing aide

CNA : Hi April! You are in charge of the name tags, right?

Me : Yes, I am.

CNA (with thick Southern accent) : Okay, I need a nameeee tag.

Me: Nine tags??!?!

CNA (still with thick Southern accent): No, just one nammmeeee tag.

Me (after silently trying to decipher that one plus nine would be ten, therefore it won't be just one) : Oh. Okay. A name tag, then.

She probably thinks I'm deaf, or my information processing is delayed but I swear, I thought she said nine, when all she meant was name.

peace out

Haha I know the feeling. We have eleven official languages in SA so imagine those accents. :)
