Default Bernard......

So yesterday, at work, I get in an argument with a security guard at an apartment building. He's not letting us (partner and I, we're Paramedics) into the building, even though somebody called us from inside and probably needs help. After About 15 minutes he lets us in. I find out the guys name is Bernard. Almost asked him to let me take a 'screen shot' of his name badge. Turns out it was a nothing call, but still.

Then Today, we're taking this guy to the loony bin. He keeps ranting about how the CIA is following him. He was paranoid about it so bad he made us drive around the block 3 times to make sure nobody was tailing us. We obliged, more to humor ourselves than anything. When he started yelling that the finger prick we did to check his blood sugar was actually injecting a tracking and growth (??) device into his fingernail. I lost it then and to leave the truck I was laughing so hard.

His name, too, was Bernard.

Don't see a lot of that name IRL. But they both lived up to the legend.
