backyard crowing ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mayonnaise or mustard? "I want a thinking woman's job," I always think to myself during the summers. I wonder whether or not I'll be stuck in an office. Such work seems quite appealing to me now. I never saw myself as a cubicle dweller, but I wouldn't mind a cushy office job right now. Could I learn to adapt to a life like that? Possibly. ...but I would rather travel. Everything I do seems to come down to now. There is little time for philosophy or original thought, and yet I have places like my sandwich shop that force me to remember that I am a creator...of more than just subs. Every once in a while, we get an amusing customer who walks in, one of those people who is happy just to be alive. A few days ago that was a tall boy with his short female friend (probably a mother), and he kept giving her a hard time about wanting her sandwich toasted. So of course, when it was time for him to order, I asked, "And what will YOU be having?" I love weird customers. Once a guy asked one of my co-workers for ice cubes on his sandwich...ANY break in the monotony of our day is a welcome relief!
