Oh, you know it! We so got Matt at work this morning! But we're going to take a step back before we talk about that! You see, someone when he woke up this morning accused someone else of not doing anything special for his golden birthday! You'd think after nineteen years of living with me he would be wiser than that, but obviously not! I mean, really - after forking friends in, the toilet capers, penguin on a roof, short-sheeting and the flip flops - he should have known better!
When the lifeguards start each shift/rotation, they have to do a check of the pool. Just before Matt came in this morning, we put the shadow doll (a black life-size mat that looks like a person) in the therapy side of the leisure pool. Matt did his check and then saw the shadow, but it didn't look right! I guess those "Happy Birthday, Matt!" signs on it threw him off. Finally, he blew his whistle and pointed at the shadow. Our supervisor motioned for him to go in and rescue. The look on his face when he read, "Happy Birthday, Matt!" was priceless! We were laughing so hard because all of the staff who were working were in on it and we were just waiting for him to find it!
Poor guy! He got sung to twice by the water ex classes - I promised him my classes would NOT sing to him! However, they did wish him a happy birthday and my first class brought him treats! He also got cookies from one of the water ex instructors and well wishes from multiple people! I would have to say, "Score!"
