Interesting Friday… usually, on days before a “holiday” like Easter, most of the office’s I’ve worked in let you out early so you can beat the traffic, which I always find funny because if they all do it, everyone ends up in the same traffic, it’s just earlier in the day.

Today we find our HERO approaching a WELL DRESSED MAN standing next to a large dial. The dial is adorned with various dollar figures and the man is very well dressed, almost too well for someone whose job it is to stand next to a large dial…

I'm doing my morning e-mail check before my run and just had to post this, because it cracked me up... one of the overnight orders was someone from Spain, one of my dream destinations, ordering 12 each of the two types of Chattering Teeth I carry on The Gag.... kills me ( Read more... )
