SHEET Room

During my college dormitory years, Monday was the day to drop off the bed sheets and exchange them for new ones. There was one guy is charge of the duty to announce that the sheet room is open. He would go up in front of the dining hall and would make the announcement – the ‘shit’ room will be open tonight after dinner. Everyone would break out into a big laughter. This went on for a year and it didn’t get old, I guess. We all knew that the sheet room opens on Monday night after dinner. However, people wanted to hear the announcement being made; we even chanted his name to go and make the announcement. Why am I sharing this? I designed out business cards for immediate use today… A simple typo made lots of difference on who, title, and oh so important email and social media handlers. Or, I am in line waiting to order a Pizza and got thinking about Tuan – that was his name, Tuan the Shit-room-man.
