How to not get ahead in business
Let’s say you’re out with the family for a Sunday afternoon drive. If you go down a main street in your town, drive through some scenic countryside, and wind up at an intersection that you remember from the after dark attempt to find your manager’s house for a Christmas party… Don’t say to your wife that you remember this and you bet you can find your manager’s house. Half an hour later, you will. You’ll also realize that he’s on a dead end road and you really have to be looking for his place to “happen to drive by”.
Not sure what told me this was a good idea but there it was. Nice place. Beautiful area. We drove by and Hoot wanted to play at the playground (swing set in the backyard). We turned around at a maple syrup advertisement(log cabin down the road). On the way back, there was a little change. Seems the boss had been grocery shopping or something. Big silver SUV in the driveway with the hatch up and paper bags in the back. I drive by kind of paralyzed. I figure, giant red head with a bright orange shirt on in my black Explorer with the Georgia Bulldog sticker in the back glass. He, uh… He may notice it’s me. So, I hit the gas pretty hard. The six year old was wondering what we had stolen and why we were peeling out of there so fast. I said something about the iron being left on or something.
