nice tie!

In contrast to the commentary I had the other day, today I got a compliment on my tie.

It was an older tie that my aunt had given me a decade a go. The compliment came from a barrista at the local "Second Cup". Perhaps he was just fishing for tips.

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
