the cost of ranch

i brought some hot wings to work yesterday. didn’t bring any ranch, just figured i can get some from the little cafeteria at work.

i go down and ask the lady that runs the cafeteria if i can have a little container of ranch even tho i didn’t buy a salad. she says “well, they are 27 cents…”. can’t give that shit away.

i ask her if i can take the ranch and come back with the money in a few minutes. i didn’t carry my wallet since i really didn’t think she’d charge me. i grab a few napkins and ask if these are free. she smiles and nods.

i walk to the elevator telling several people that if they think ranch is free they better think again. i get a quarter and 2 pennies and bring it back to her.

i’m so glad friday is my last day.
