I can see that. Sometimes at home someone gives a question that throws me off track and I have no idea what to do.

Glad to know he wasn't confused about what country they wanted...
Most of us have W-2 forms delivered to us, electronically or otherwise. We don't have delivered or go out seeking the tax form we use to file, anymore. I feel a little sheepish about it, but W-2 is what leaped to mind for me too...

I don't think people were expecting an entirely numerical response either. I stayed clam, but thought "1040...E...Z?"
The best thing that Neil Armstrong ever did, was to let us all imagine we were him.

I had the same thought but had enough presence of mind (on the couch, of course) to decide I would ring in and provide the 1040 with more information on BMS if necessary.

As to Jesse getting confused by the wrong responses, like others, I can totally see this happening. It happens to us at home. I assume the lights magnify the effect.
