I made a slight faux pas today. The admin stopped by to drop off my paycheck. She is normally a serious person, but I think she likes passing out paychecks because everyone is happy to see her when she has money for them. Anyway, I always take the opportunity to flash a big smile and say something appreciative.

Today I forgot it was payday and I said so. Her smile lessened a little bit and then she said "How could you forget it's payday. I run out of money."

Whoops.
