Laugh at me with me!
Often if there's an open bottle of wine left at the end of the night at work (a restaurant), my boss will urge me to finish it so it doesn't go to waste. Last night was no different! There was a half-bottle of pino grigio in the fridge and an open shiraz. Personally, I (usually) like white wine better, and pino grigio is my favourite wine in the entire wine universe. So after I finished eating and washed my dishes, my boss comes up to me with a glass.
"Here, have some wine!"
"Okay!"
I take the glass and sit down at a table, not even looking it at, and take a sip. Hmm, this is a lot sweeter and more carbonated than wine should be, and tastes a lot like ginger ale... I look up at my boss and he's laughing his head off, and I'm resigned to admit that I can be a bit gullible. I tend to take things at face value.
So we had a laugh, and then I finished off the shiraz and ignored the ginger ale.
