Mondays are weird days
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Happy Tuesday
I think the planets have aligned for the day. Dunkin Donuts had a good stock of banana walnut muffins and I actually got one.
How does it work out for you on a Monday? I don’t like the phone calls that come in over the weekend. Too many people call me without really thinking through it first.
“Hello, I need a police officer to sit all day at my intersection because Gladys runs the stop sign every Tuesday between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. I tried saying something to her but she flipped me off.”
“Hi, We’d like to hire an off-duty officer to keep the drunk kids from leaving my son’s party. We’re taking their keys and letting them drink but we would like the officer there to stop them from leaving because we feel like that’s the responsible thing to do. We’re trying to set an example.”
“Hi, we would like to hire an off-duty officer for an after-party for our employees, starting at 1 a.m. and going until about 5 a.m. We’d like someone who isn’t offended by nudity. Thank you.”

Gee, Steve, which one did you sign up for? That’s a no-brainer.
