Wow... it's been a while! I've been so swamped lately that I haven't had time to visit my blog or any of the other ones I've grown addicted to along the way. And now I'm back but with nothing much to say.. well there is this one event...
The most embarrassing thing in the world just happened to me two days ago at work.
I was sitting at my cubicle, no.. actually standing which meant that I was visible to everyone.
I was undocking my laptop to go to a meeting room, so I press the eject button and to my horror, the loudest sound of music that could ever be heard comes out of my lovely, not so discrete laptop! I frantically try to mute it and nothing happens! I realise that the mute button is not working because the pc is locked.. and to try to unlock it now and wait for it to log on and then start to mute that thing would take forever. I started to notice that a circle of curious and in some cases angry and disapproving eyes was quickly forming around me and its radius was growing every passing second. I had to do something but I wasn't quite sure what, and that guy singing in my speakers just wouldn't stop!!! And then suddenly I figure it all out, the reason this guy started screaming out of control is that I udocked the laptop and the headphones were attached to the dock-station! so I start fumbling with the headphones to try to remove them from the dock-station and place them back into the laptop itself until I finally (after what seemed like a century) manage to do that and the music is finally gone. I look and i see at least a dozen faces directed my way. I say "Sorry... Sorry" and I duck, continue to gather my stuff and wait a few minutes then head for the meeting room and stay there for the rest of the day.
Life's a BLAST
Cheers!

hehehe, that must have been hilarious.
Of course, the degree of embarassment depends on who was it who was singing :P
hilarious yeah, when I think back now it is, but at the exact moment when it happened it wasn't that funny.
It was Saber El Roba3y singing 'Agmal Nesa2 El Donia' by the way. And he was really emphasizing his point of view when it all went down :S
