Owner lost his keys. Found them. I told him to have a good night. As he’s LEAVING the office/building for the night he asks, “How can you work in the dark?!” He flips the big, overhead lights on and walks out.

At the risk of being a super sap, yet again, here’s a quote from A Thousand Country Roads about signs of maturity.

So if they don’t admire you for your admirable qualities, they just haven’t matured yet.
That being said, I LOVE YOUR FACE! And I will now shut up and watch Harrison Barnes dominate the 3-point shot.
