Some random work story…

… to - hopefully - keep my faithful readers entertained.
Admittedly it’s not really new, but most of you won’t know it.
There’s this black lady who is a regular customer at the store. (No, this is not another boss story! )
She always does these weird things with her hair, like piling that incredible mass up or tying it up in a scarf of the American flag.
Anyway, she always smiled at me when seeing me at the store or elsewhere. Really friendly lady.
Only, since… er… two years ago she’s smiling even wider. Well, ok, not as much as the first few times, but I feel it’s still a bit more than it used to be.
The reason? I don’t know!
I was just returning from an annual festivity 30km from here. As I couldn’t have the car, I was going back by bus. And when I got on, there she was, riding home as well, giving me the widest smile ever and greeting me.
I am sure her reaction was totally unrelated to the fact that I happened to be wearing a mildly medievalish blouse, leather pants and no shoes and was carrying a sword and dagger….
