I work in mergers and acquisitions

HEY ALL,

The other day my friend, Carli, and I were shopping in the store I frequently visit to oogle over the expensive pair of biker boots I want.
I suppose there's no reason to continue looking at them when I've already convinced myself the purchase would be impractical, but I just can't help it!

They sell a series of wrist watches made entirely out of reclaimed hardwood (I mean, save for the watch mechanism) and I'm intrigued. I consider buying one made out of raw unfinished wood, but Carli asks the salesperson if they will handle water well, since we frequently have to wash our hands in the hospital.

He says they're sealed and splash resistant, so it would be okay.

I nod, and ask "What about if I get blood on it?"
This is a legitimate question to ask since respiratory therapists often deal with blood and sputum/phlegm.  I fail to mention my occupation choice to the salesperson prior to this though, and he says "Yeah... that would probably stain.."
"Oh, thats no good then," I lament, and lose interest.

Carli pays for her things and we leave.

LATER: I come upon a revelation that perhaps the sales guy was a little confused as to what I plan on doing that would entail my (apparently very serious) concern with blood getting on my accessories.

Also, to anyone who's heard the news of the American Psycho remake going into production: I WORK IN MURDERS AND EXECUTIONS.
