I had to get blood drawn a few weeks ago. There’s usually no problem finding a vein, but the tech was having a hard time.

I thought I heard her say “got it” or something to that effect, and I blurted out “finally!” When she stepped back, I realized that she did not get the vein, and was calling to her coworker in the next room.

I said “I’m so sorry! I thought you said you got it, I wasn’t saying ‘finally’ to you getting someone else!” We all had a good laugh over it. I would have felt like shit all day if I’d let her think I said “finally!” for calling someone else in
