Backup stamp saved my Tuesday

At an 8 pm hospital signing, my self-inker coughed out a donut instead of a seal and the patient goes, ‘Is that the official cheerio?’ I sprinted to the car for the backup stamp, came back wheezing, and we got a clean imprint and a good laugh — anyone else?

That ‘official cheerio’ killed me. , self-inkers love to die after 8 pm, so I do a one-stamp test on a sticky note in the car and keep a pocket embosser as a backup — saves the sprint. Do you carry an embosser for hospital signings?
