For Nothing?!!

Today was quite uneventful. 
For the most part it was exactly like every other day at work.
Leases, phone calls, phone calls, mailing lists and a mind numbing stack of rent rolls.
Nothing too troubling. I mean, lets be serious, this isn't brain surgery or anything. I am not saving
someones life by going to work. I sit at a desk and most of the time my mind spaces
out every 5 minutes... in surgery thats not such a great quality.

Anyway, thats not the point. The point is, today of all days, I was given 10 dollars. 
Yup, ten whole bucks for absolutely no reason at all. Well, no, thats not completely true.
The guy at work who gave me said ten dollars gave it to me believing
that I was deserving of it. That I somehow did half of some task that was assigned to him. 
Which, I might add, is news to me. Considering the fact that I distinctly remember
not moving from my desk today. Except to absolutely spoil myself with the most gratuitous, delicious,
juicy burger on the planet from Black Shack with some cajun fries (HEAVEN)!




Now, how I managed to hep him is still debatable. So, naturally,
(I say naturally way too often) I attempted to give it back to him.

At first I was pretty straight forward. I followed him around the office and attempted to give it to him
or somehow sneak it in his pocket till he would see reason. Didn't work. I even attempted to get sneaky and have others give it to him, strategically place it on the floor where he walks, or have him stumble upon money that he seemed to have left at his desk. All to no avail, he refused. Alright, I will admit, they were not very subtle ways to go about it. In fact looking back I guess they are kind of obvious,
but I mean I'm not a ninja here. I can't sneak in like I have an invisibility cloak on or something.
(Yes, Elora that comparison was for you.)

So... I gave up. At least for now. Perhaps if I wait a few days he will forget and just think he got lucky enough to stumble upon some bucks. I should just give it to someone else. Perhaps the cashiers at a Starbucks or something to pay for other customers stuff in line. Then again, they might take the cash for themselves. I could give it to a random child on the street. Though, that would 
probably look creepy and get me arrested. Maybe I can just drop it on the sidewalk, I know 
how lucky I feel when I find money randomly on the ground... or in my
pocket of my washed clothing.



Oh well, I will think of something.
