Our receptionist at work, Barb, had a conversation recently with a new sales rep for a product we carry. It all went well, and the rep said she would send a fax in the next few days to confirm the order.
The fax came soon thereafter, stating "I was very nice talking to you the other day." (We assume she meant to write "It was very nice talking to you the other day". )
Oh, we had a good laugh over that. Was she just being overly defensive, or did she have some self-esteem problems that required constant reassurance? Did she just want to make it clear that this was as good as she was going to get? Or was it that she was keeping a record in case some sort of litigation would ensue?
This is what amuses us when we should be working.
