Good question, Flint. Some churchgoing type tied me a perfect tie as a plebe – I wore that all four years at the academy and also when (rarely needed) as an officer. I still have it somewhere and, honestly, that’s a sweet knot to this day. A little small for the professional world, bit looked great with winter working blues or whatever the hell that uni was called.

What’s up with not knowing how to tie a tie….they didn’t do uniform drills at your pseudo academy?

My sister-in-law is a pharma rep – nothing has really changed since your days in the sun. She works roughly 5 hours per day and that includes car time getting from place to place. She is dumber than a box of hammers and has big fake boobs. I can’t criticize her though, she makes over $80K (including bonus) and apparantly does her job well. Its comforting to know that the dumbest human on the planet is educating my doctor on what medications to prerscribe me. I guess that’s why my prescription for Cymbalta costs $5 per pill and causes severe rectal bleeding.
