Hole in One

My division at work has been subdivided into small groups for team building activities.  This morning, Anonymous Officemate, my manager (M) and two other group members spent the morning playing nine holes of golf with the goal of seeing how much beer they could consume before noon strengthening team ties.  I had a meeting with M shortly after their return and asked how his morning on the golf course was.

M:  “Well, it was interesting to say the least.”

AE:  “What do you mean?”

M: “Anonymous Officemate showed up to play in a singlet, denim shorts and flip flops.  I sent him home to change into more appropriate clothes and he came back without clubs.  I asked him where his clubs were and he told me that he didn’t have any.  The inappropriate attire and lack of clubs made me slightly suspicious so I asked him if he knows how to play golf.  His response, “Oh yeah, for sure.  I play Wii Golf all the time.”  Needless to say, he was appointed to driving the cart while the rest of us played.”

I was speechless for a solid minute before my jaw returned from the floor and I erupted into laughter.  Anonymous Officemate, you fail, yet again.
