Overheard

Some things just brought this to mind today, but I heard it this summer, waiting around the Clayton docks for the kids to finish up in the restroom. A town worker was down there with his truck, getting some gear out of a storage area, and he was talking on his cell phone to someone at the same time. And he said to the other end, “I’m gonna tell you something Larry told me a long time ago. You can be the best boss in the world until you have to tell somebody to do something they don’t want to do. Then you’re an asshole.”
So, this guy working on the town crew pretty much has it figured out.
