Life Lesson #28,746

This comes courtesy of a friend:
"We were interviewing someone for a position at my company and I went to pick her up from the lobby. To cut to the quick of the story, she is blind. I didn't want to be overly helpful, but I didn't want her to get hurt either, seeing as how I'm supposed to be guiding her along. She was using a stick to help guide herself in the hallways and I thought she was doing well. I informed my supervisor that she was here and that I'd bring her in when they were ready to interview her.
"Well. . . I'm escorting her to our conference room. . . where one door was shut in its locked position and the other was open. She claimed that she could see up close but not clearly. Two of my supervisors get up to greet the job candidate. I started walking toward the open portion of the door leading the woman by her elbow. . . but . . . she didn't step in front of me into the open section of the door. Yep! You guessed. 'THUD!' Or as Homer Simpson might have put it 'D'OH!' She ran right into the door. But she recovered and stumbled through the open part of the door.
"I felt really bad. No one quite knew what to do or say. To make things worse, one of our secretaries who was just making conversation/small talk asked her if she WAS DRIVING?! How bad is that?! Needless to say, a few days later when we offered her the job, she turned us down. She had a near perfect GPA too! So much for impressing her. I think that day we were the challenged ones."

**And no Randy, you are not a bad person for laughing at that story.**
