Interesting phrase which brought a laugh to my busy morning.

Today, I sent an email to a Senior manager and partner to inform them of a status of a piece of work.  And told the SM that I can help him to follow up further if he is happy for me to do it.

Guess what’s the reply from the SM?

“I’m really deep underwater and will come up for air only on Friday at 3pm (which is when we have our audit close meeting). Will be great if you can help please.”

Try using it the next time u are held up with work. hahahaha…..
