Another Pretzel
Story:
When I was among the actively employed, (Pre Retirement) I
almost always had a small bowl of pretzels on my desk. They were just a little
something to nibble on or drop on the floor. One time I didn’t feel well.
I had the notion that I was coming down with a doozy of a cold. It was
beginning to have all the bells and whistles, such as sneezes, sore throat and
the sinus thing.
One of my coworkers, who didn't seem to have a job there,
but he moved from office to office and desk to desk with the general purpose of
disturbing others came through my door and sat down. After a few minutes of
gossip, he reached into the bowl of pretzels and took a handful of pretzels. I started to
warn him, but changed my mind. If I’d said anything, he’d have put them back,
and I’d have had throw the whole bowl away. So I let him enjoy himself.... He
missed about 3 days of non-work, but nobody seemed to notice.
My old daddy always told me, “If a fella is determined to be
stupid… Let him.”
