Conversations with That Guy At Work
GAW: (hehehhe) Did you see that shirt?
Me: (with my back to the guy with the shirt in reference) No
GAW: It said rage against the machine… (hehehe)
Me: That's a band
GAW: (Almost rolling on the floor laughing) Now I know exactly how a guy I used to work for felt.
GAW: There were these guys at work that took time off to go see a band. When the boss asked them what band they went to go see, they said "The Who." The boss asked again what band was it.
Commentary: According to GAW's story, this went on for awhile. Or at least the story did, but you get the point.
