In the industry that my husband works in we get to meet allot of different people from all fields of life...and that leads me into allot of interesting and humorous stories...there are also occasions when I am not sure how to handle certain circumstances...take this particular situation for example...we arrive at a meat plant in OK and as usual are greeted by and overpowered, underpaid guard...who proceeds to give us instructions on what necessary things need to be done to get our load...during this process he hands my husband a neon safety vest that is to be worn while out and about on the grounds...(he never wears them...never know who had this thing on before or what they had...anyhow he tosses it into the truck where I notice it is marked...cuz apparently stealing these things has become quite a problem here..."Gaurd Shack #2" now, don't jump me cuz I did not spell it improperly & had to make sure when spelling checking that it remained the same..."Gaurd Shack #2" apparently they haven't made a sharpie with spell check as of yet! Well, this is where my dilemma begins...what to do...do I grab my trusty dusty sharpie and nonchalantly change it...knowing that it will be quite noticeable or do I leave well enough alone...but then the question arises how many other people have seen it and not even noticed it was wrong...what to do....anyhow...not wanting to cause any waves with the powers that be in the outhouse with telephone...I left well enough alone...now what would you do?

i guess i'd just add to the bottom of the vest, "spellin' don't really count here."
