Encounters with Employees

1. Last night I was working and eating at the Bad Bakery With Free Wi-Fi and one of the employees see the Quantum Groups book on my table and goes, "Quantum Groups! Whoa!" and then starts talking to me about goodness knows what. Maybe something about him taking a graduate level math course? Yes, majoring in math makes you employable... as a barrista.


2. Textbook rep showed up in my office today. Suit didn't quite fit him. Big holes in his earlobes. Nope, I betcha he didn't expect to be doing sales.
