Make Cheesy Choices, Suffer Cheesy Consequences
CONFERENCE, DOCTOR/PHYSICIAN, FUNNY NAMES, SILLY, USA | HEALTHY | JANUARY 26, 2020
The healthcare organization where I work is setting up an educational conference for our members, who are mostly doctors and nurses. When people register for the conference online, they have the option of customizing their name badges with nicknames and Twitter handles.
My coworker is preparing attendee name badges and notices something. An attendee, a doctor whose last name includes the word “cheese,” has customized his nickname to “The Cheeseman.” After much deliberation, we decide to print the name badge as-is.
At the conference, my coworker meets the attendee, hands him his registration packet, and shows him the name badge.
Doctor: “Wow… I don’t remember doing that. I must have been s***faced!”
Coworker: “We can print you a new one, if you’d like.”
Doctor: *Solemnly, and a little sadly* “No… No, I deserve this.”
He took his badge and wore it for the entire conference.
