This is a question Overheard secrets

When I was a barman, I stood by polishing a glass as a couple had a hushed argument two feet away about what they were going to do now she was pregnant. The bloke promised to leave his wife, but subsequent hushed arguments revealed that he did not. What have you overheard?

LOVE Bartending stories!
I work at a resident's bar in a 4 star hotel, so get a lot of business clients, business owners, and other fairly well-off people who like to pretend they're a lot richer than they actually are. One evening, late one night, I had a small group of men at the bar discussing setting up a private 'red letter' club, as a means to doing all the things they've always wanted to do before they die. Expensive things, like travelling to the Grand Canyon, skydiving and bungee jumping, among other things. They began to get quite excited, when one of them said to his friend:

"You could even fund it with money from the charity, if your conscience would allow it..."

The gentleman pursed his lips and slowly nodded his head.



Be careful who you're giving your money to.

Man, this is absolutely disgusting!
"Your conscience", not "you're conscience".

Oh god!
I sincerely apologise, I don't know how I did that one.

Will promptly edit.

Gawd. How embarrassing.

Anyone would think you were dyslexic

I just spent ages thinking
'but you've spelt "conscience" the same both times..."

Yes, I am retarded.

I love how the moral uproar is about a small, accidental grammatical error, as opposed to the embezzlement of charity money.

That's the b3tan priority.

"But the money was just resting in my account..."

It was resting for a long time.
A good long rest.
