I just witnessed a new low.

What happens when you combine a handful of rubber bands and a near blind guy?

If you ask my brother, he’d probably say a whole lotta fun.

We hired a new telemarketer a couple of months ago. Real nice guy, very talented, unfortunately he has very poor vision - near blind. I think he said his vision was like 20/200, meaning that what he can see from 20 feet away, we can see from 200 feet away.

Near Blind Guy
(Here he sits very close to his monitor.)

As he was leaving today, Scott grabbed a rubber band and fired it his way. Whish, right past him. He didn’t notice.

Fire #2, whish right past his head, didn’t notice again.

Scott now getting frustrated with his rubber band firing abilities, carefully aims another. Direct Hit!

He STILL didn’t notice. Not only didn’t he notice, he was still talking to us. Scott fires again and again as he is walking out the door - one more miss, and another hit. Slowly the door closes and he disappears.

At this point, I’m trying to contain my laughter (I also feel a little bad about this.)

I look over at Scott, and the only thing he has to say for himself?

“Man, this must be a new low.”

Yeah, a new low, but great blog content! :-)

    Hey! I felt bad because he was *supposed* to see what I was doing. When he didn’t I felt kind of like I should keep shooting until he did or it would be weird. Well. Now it’s weird.

    You kept firing until someone lost an eye.
