Poor choice of words

Today, I met with an important client to talk about his stake in the company. The guy was at least 80 years old. After taking care of business, we spoke about my final year at the company. As he got up to leave he said, "Good luck in your final year." Without thinking, I replied, "You too!" FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Same thing different taste

Eh...I mean it was obviously just a slipup. We really need a "your life really isn't that ******" button.

Ouch! That reminds me of: When was younger I hated going to weddings… my aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me "You're next." They stopped that after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals...

haha well, at least you were only attempting to be polite. i'm sure he'll understand. then again, he might beat you with his cane until you are a bloody mess lol!

nah, kick his cane out and when he falls he breaks a hip, problem solved lol

HAHA! That's amazing. You made my day. =)

#25, LOL! Smooth, OP.

I would think he would interpret "you too" as referring to the good luck, not the final year. But yeah, people often say "you too" without thinking. I once said that to a cab driver after he dropped me off at the airport and said "have a safe flight."

I agree with #27. He probably thought you meant good luck, and even if he didn't he would probably acknowledge that it was a mistake. Everyone's been there XD
