A Mortifying Experience - 100-word snippet

I worked for a company that won an award. Our company was at a reception to honor small companies with awards. I was at a table with the big shots of our company, including the CEO and vice president. I spotted a waiter in a white shirt with a black bow tie. I asked him to bring us water. I was mortified when he said, “I am not a waiter!” I made a serious faux pas! At a black-tie affair! I waited to be reprimanded. The vice president chuckled, “I could have made the same mistake.” Phew! I was safe.
