This week there was already a good number of people doing all the regular jobs like vacuuming, cleaning bathrooms and washing windows, when I arrived. After a moment's thought, Cleaning Director Ben asked me to dust the pulpit in the chapel.
There was a guy already there when I walked in. He was vacuuming. We nodded to each other and went to our separate tasks. Only a few minutes had passed when he asked a question.
"What does it say on your hat?"
"Just Bite Me."
He hesitated. "What?"
"That's what it says."
"Oh."
I thought this exchange was pretty funny, but I didn't laugh too hard lest I hurt his feelings. We chatted about baseball caps until we were both done cleaning.
Her hat, for those who don't know, is also a picture of a grizzly bear and the brim has a huge bite mark designed out of it for effect. This is Jess' outward indicator of where any female/male bonding relationship is headed from the onset. A Proud Father
