"What time are you planning on leaving today?"
My boss likes to be nice and let us leave early sometimes. Except I'm usually out of the office by 4 pm anyhow so his "leave by 4!" command isn't the treat he thinks it is.
"Same time. Four."
"Well, I was going to say you can leave at 4 but you normally do so make sure you leave by 3:30 today. It's supposed to rain tomorrow."
"huh? what does that have to do with anything?" The man never ceases to amaze me with his logic...
"Well, it's nice now and it's going to rain tomorrow so you should get an extra 30 minutes to enjoy it." The look on his face made it clear that he was extremely pleased by his generosity.
"Awesome thanks. I'll make sure I get all of this paperwork processed in time."
So at 3:30 I trucked down to the UPS store to drop off the overnight packages and I mentioned to the two clerks (who by now know my schedule better than I do) and a nice young man with a lovely hair style and cute little black dress (Meh...it's Portland...) that it was too bad the weather was going to turn sour.
They looked at me like I had grown a third eye, which was a little weird coming from a twenty something man sporting a Drew Barrymore hair cut and a Barry White voice.
The point of my story? There is no point. I just thought it was a weird afternoon and wanted to share it with you.
