My dad and his brother were in the same fraternity when they were in college. One day, as my dad is heading to his car, this woman stops him and scolds him for not allowing the girls from his sorority a social function. After waiting patiently for her to finish, Dad told her she could tell my uncle. My dad decided to take the girl out to make up for her embarrassment. And that’s how my mother and father met.
For the record, right after I graduated high school, I met a girl named Jacqueline, which happens to be my mother’s name. The same medium-sized city served as our birthplace and upbringing. Besides the obvious, “Oh, that’s a completely random coincidence!” I didn’t think about it. After two or three months we are in a relationship with her. Her father “swears” he already met me when I met her parents. When I visited Jacqueline at work a few weeks later, she said, “Now I know why my dad thinks you look familiar.” He dated your mother in high school and named his daughter after her.”
Years ago, when my company was gradually failing, I was looking for another job. After giving my manager two weeks’ notice, I was hired by another company. “I am accepting another job offer I received. I am resigning,” I informed my supervisor. “Oh, we hate to lose you,” was his reply. Could you tell me where you’re going? He looked at me and said he was applying for the same job when I mentioned the company name. Then I said, “I’m sorry to tell you that you didn’t understand,” to end the conversation.
After three difficult attempts to conceive, my husband and I started the adoption process.
A few days after we submitted the final paperwork, we found out that my wife was also expecting.
identical twins. I currently have three 11-year-olds, seven weeks apart in age.
When I arrived for the job interview, the employer did not know I would be there. I follow him into his office, where he reluctantly begins to question me. I just wasn’t in the mood to be made to feel unwelcome after so many conversations. When he asks why I want to work here, I answer something like: “I like to help people.” He responds with profanity, which surprises me, but it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.
The interview consists of formalities for the rest and I end it with a sneering “Sorry to bother you.”
I’m depressed when I get back to my apartment. The voicemail asked for my interview location. They wanted to know if I still wanted to call them. I realized I was on the wrong floor when I compared the name, number, and company on the business card I was given. I got an interview offer the moment I went to a random business. Yes, but I was rejected from both jobs.
My mother was informed that her unborn child had an abnormal heartbeat and that she could expect some difficulties during the pregnancy. They had doctors ready for her due date and all the tools needed to help with the birth. The doctor replied, “Oh, there’s one more,” which was me after my mother gave birth to my brother. Unexpected twins!
I worked as a barista at Starbucks before the “names on cups” craze became popular. This adorable guy visited maybe four or five times a week. Not uncommonly, but somewhat often. I flirted a lot. He returned the flirtation. Everything was fantastic.
Then he and his fiancee enter. From that moment I was cold towards him and felt betrayed.
A month later two of them meet and I find out they are twins. I would take any opportunity I got with just one.
A person I knew in college was discussing with his new girlfriend about the Glastonbury music festival – a large British music festival that attracts around 150,000 people. He went every year and it turned out she had been going for years too. Eventually, they began to compare the images they had taken over the years.
A friend of mine took a photo from his first time at the festival where he is facing a field while sitting on a fence. The girl sitting with her back to him and her companion photographing her are the only two other individuals in the photograph. When his girlfriend notices that he is also there for the first time, she takes a picture. He is sitting in it on the field.
Of the fifteen thousand people attending the festival, the only other individuals in the photo are the man sitting on the fence facing away from her and his companion taking a photo.
It was early 2000. My dad has double vision, so he sees an eye doctor. In all other respects, he is doing well. He describes his symptoms to the doctor. The doctor pulls out a medical book on eye diseases. He is experiencing the same symptoms my father mentions.
The doctor shows him a book. The book includes a photo of the child from the 1960s and a full medical page explaining what he is going through.
When my father saw the photo, he exclaimed, “Doctor, it’s me!” “Yes, those are your symptoms,” the doctor replies. “No, that’s me in the picture!” my father corrects me. It just so happens that my father’s childhood eye condition was so unusual that it was documented in a book of unusual eye conditions when he was photographed in the 1960s. Although he doesn’t remember much about the photo shoot, he managed to get a copy to bring home.
I organized a weekend vacation to Barcelona with this girl while I was studying abroad in England. This was before cell phones. I slept too late. they arrived at the airport almost three hours late. As soon as I got there, there was a girl. We both say, “I’m so sorry,” at the same time. Wait, what are you apologizing for?” It also turns out she overslept. We arrived in Barcelona a few hours later than planned, but the airline fixed our tickets at no extra cost.
I had a date with a girl once. Even though she wasn’t my type, she was polite. I didn’t call her after our first date. A month later I got a new job.
My supervisor introduced me to the person who would be my supervisor on my first day at work. And sure enough, it was this girl.
It wasn’t so bad because we became friends later.
I mentioned to the client where I was spending the summer – a guy I met. He had a terrible reputation in the community due to his repeated infidelities and extravagant spending that gave the impression of being wealthy. It was a complete piece of work.
He had lost all his money trying to develop some land and was now at a loss for companies in the community to work with him.
She asked his name. He was her fiancé. I am currently on the phone with a client of mine who is crying because she was getting ready to marry a broken man who was also her husband.
I went clubbing in Tokyo with some really nice Japanese guys. We were at our fourth club around two in the morning when a random guy remarked, “Hey! You look like you speak English. Where are you from? I said I’m from England, specifically a small town.”
His eyes lit up and he started to laugh.
He worked as a security guard at my neighborhood mall. He specifically mentioned the location and the stores he is following. It was unbelievable to me. This showed me for the first time how small the globe is.
