Yesterday I was walking in to my office building behind a woman who had a lovely designer purse over her left shoulder.
In her right hand, she was carrying a very large, bright yellow cordless Stanley power drill. Matter of factly holding it down by her hip, like one might stroll around carrying a small pistol. Casual, sort of. Like yes, hey, I'm secure in my right to keep and bear power tools so I don't neeeeed no steeeenking tote bag.
Of COURSE she got on my elevator, and I employed the "I don't see you" technique I practiced in Manhattan.
As Johnny said, "Someone's gonna get screwed today".
Random thoughts, which I post while I am pretending I am STILL age 39.99999! Join me for my next 40 years...

That made me laugh, I love it.
Well, you just trumped my pending story of the woman I walked into the building with. She had a huge box of donuts in one hand and a can of diet coke in the other.
Designer bag and a power drill. Is that Metrocontractor?

@anonymous: that sounds like one of those "Find all the wrong things in this picture" activity.
Carly-You mean that isn't something you see everyday? Maybe it was take your tool to work day...and you just forgot.
take your tool to work day? that is awesome! I need to get that instituted at my job
I agree! "Take Your Tool to Work" Day could really make things much more interesting...although sadly, some people would still show up with their kids...
