Oh, THAT Kind of Video
By leelefever on July 27, 2007 - 12:10pm.
The other day I was getting a haircut. Making small talk (it was a $15 haircut) she asks...
Barber: So are you going back to work after this?
Me: Sort of. I work from home.
Barber: Oh, that's cool. What do you do?
Me: Me and my wife make videos, in our basement. Well, I should say that we get paid to make videos.
Barber: <interested look>
Me: We have a little studio at home and we make short videos for businesses.
Barber: Oh, THAT kind of videos. I hear ya.<knowing nod of subversive respect>
Me: No, no, no. Not THAT kind I swear. Our videos are instructional.
Barber: <raises eyebrows>
Me: I mean, our videos explain complex ideas in a simple way, using a whiteboard and paper.
Barber: <clearly less interested by the lack of perversion> Oh. So what are we doing with your hair today?
LOL! Keep making and sharing
LOL!
Keep making and sharing those videos.
You make many people so happy!
Funny
that's an awesome story.
Hilarious! There's gotta be
Hilarious! There's gotta be a simple way to explain that without sounding...odd, right? :)
Fantastic! Milk it for all
Fantastic! Milk it for all it's worth.
ROFL - Can you go for another haircut?
That is so funny.
It is all in how you tell the story :) I wonder if you said you made videos for YouTube and were paid to make videos whether this would have sparked interest. Off course you have to take a mobile device a play one for her as well :)
Please go back for another hair cut and let us know. PS never have this problem when I tell them that I teach people how to farm fish (however if I talk instead about podcasting and the people I interview they normally switch off).
