This morning started off on the wrong foot. I got all the way to work and realized I forgot my laptop at home. So I had to turn around and go all the way back home to get it. Not a great way to start the day. But…….
I got to drive into this spectacular sunrise!! So I pulled over and took this photo. Yes, I am one of THOSE people!
But now I’m heading back into work later than normal which throws everything off. Normally I am here at least an hour before shift change so there aren’t a whole lot of people coming and going. But just slightly behind schedule, the activity picks up significantly.
The driveway coming in to my place of employment is long and winding. I think it was designed that way so you have to drive slowly and think hard about the long day ahead. Here is what I was following: Three large men on even larger Harley’s. Behind them….. a guy on a scooter. Dressed is his North Face jacket and jaunty helmet. Made me smile. Made me laugh right out loud when they all pulled in to the motorcycle parking area together and the guys on the Harleys high fived the guy on the scooter as they walked by.
Then……… walking in from the other end of the parking lot, I saw not one but two guys carrying lunchboxes just like this….
No joke. My guess is they are originals, not knockoffs, and they have been carried through these doors for 30+ years. The quality of lunchbox construction was obviously much higher back then!
And on my way back from the cafeteria, I saw…..
Well, not exactly this guy (since this is definitely not within the dress code policy) but I saw someone with a comb like this sticking out of his back pocket. The famous 70’s back pocket comb! I remember them well. I had a pastel pink one and another one that had orange and yellow and pink sort of melted together. An absolute necessity to keep feathered hairstyles looking super cool!
I have often said that working here has transported me back in time to the 70’s and I keep seeing things that support my theory!
And I'm also thinking it was a stroke of luck that I forgot my laptop at home this morning. Look at all the interesting things I saw, just by running a little bit late! :)
Happy Thursday to all! Thank you for stepping back in time with me and ENJOY the long holiday weekend!!
Keep on smiling!
Keep on smiling!
