Dollhouse Dad Reading Paper on Toilet

Some prefer magazines; others books. Most would agree something has to be read during this time. I once had a rather long visit to the facilities at work the day after Thanksgiving. The building was sparsely populated so I had the utmost privacy. The length of the procedure was such that the automatic lights turned off, thinking no one was in the can. Realizing that is someone came in, and saw the lights turn on, saw the stall occupied, he (or she the cleaning person) would put two and two together and realize that I had been there an awful long time. So I waved my arms frantically, to no avail since the sensors were around the other side. I then quickly ended said visit and got the heck out of there. You know how we roll.

Metal Detector

The first company I was ever with out of college gives you a catalog on your 5-year career anniversary (along with a certificate worth absolute zilch) with about 50 gifts among which you may choose one. Having had other colleagues hit the mark prior to me, I had plenty of time to think about what I wanted based on viewing their catalogs. Ever since I was a little kid I had dreamed of striking it reach using a metal detector providing me financial security, along with my Wade Boggs rookie card of course. Hence it was love at first sight. Something that I would never buy for myself because I am too cheap lands in my lap by way of the 5-year catalog. Too bad I knew nothing about metal detecting, and I was getting perhaps the second cheapest metal detector of all time (albeit from a reputable company), with the first cheapest being the ones made for little kids. I don't remember what else was in the catalog besides newfangled DVD players and what not, so maybe this wasn't the worst choice. 

Auction Spotter Wands

Spotting at an auction is a good gig. Just hold these light wands up the air and point to someone who has raised his or her paddle. Screw focus groups, this is the way to go.

Hiring Trailer

I was always told you can never overdress for an interview; that may not be true if it takes place in a "hiring trailer."
