Wednesday - The Badge

Today on my drive into work, I was thinking about how much I dislike John, the security guard in the lobby of my building. John is a stickler for rules, particularly the rule about not being able to enter the building without a security badge. I understand this is his job and that a person ought to take their job seriously. But people who take their jobs too seriously are a serious pain in the neck. Besides, it's not like I work for some covert government agency or anything. My company manages funeral homes, for crying out loud. Most of our clients are already dead when they come to us, so how disgruntled could they be?

( Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges! )
