Tiny Threads: An Insignificant Series

And every day.

It’s been way too long since I’ve had a massage.
I recently stumbled groggily into a door and thought, “That wasn’t terrible.”

Just switch out ‘Asking for a friend’ with ‘I’m an obnoxious prick not even bothering to hide it anymore’ and call it a day.

Advice for job hunters: only idiots reply to an automatic reply.
Desperation is not a good look.
Neither is an e-mail that comes in at 3 AM Saturday night.

It finally dawned on me that I’ve been channeling Tina Turner in ‘Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome’ for all my adult life. Bust a deal, face the wheel. #RaggedyMan

I previously posted a quick text exchange between Skip and myself as a #TinyThread; today is Suzie’s turn, but don’t tell her because I didn’t get her permission yet.
SUZIE: I’m not positive on this, but a quick scan of our work fridge seems to indicate that someone brought in SpaghettiOs for lunch.
ME: Ok. NEVER scan the work fridge. This is basic office protocol. You put your stuff in, and you take your stuff out. Do not touch, look, scan or involve yourself in the rest of the fridge. It’s like Fight Club only more dangerous.

Situation: you’re at the café, you order your drink and you get about seventeen cents back in change. No spare dollar bill, not even a quarter – just some pennies, a nickel and a dime. Do you put this into the tip jar? I never do, thinking it’s more of an insult to give such a piddling amount. To me, it always felt like one of those silent fuck-you-I hate-change-too-so-I’m-leaving-the-mess-for-you-to-clean-up-while-looking-like-I’m-tipping-you-which-for-all-intents-and-purposes-I’m-not-because-what-the-fuck-can-anyone-do-with-seventeen-goddamn-cents moves. Am I wrong? Or does every penny count?
