A task of my duties was to ensure that the parking spaces of surgeons were reserved and not used by any visitor during visiting hours.
But one day I was distracted. A clearly annoyed surgeon screamed into the reception area and asked who was supervising parking. so I owned up.
He started to yell at me, saying He should not have to waste time looking for a parking space as there might have been any possible emergency.
He stopped suddenly and stared at my tie. ‘Why are you wearing an Oxford tie?’ he asked. ‘Because I’m an Oxford student and it’s my summer job,’ I answered. ‘Oh my God, I’m so sorry,
I apologize,’ he said and proceeded to conversate with me and talking about my college and course.
