This is about ramen noodles, I promise.
I recall working in a ‘IT’ company in 2000.
The Gore-Bush election media made fiasco was going on.
One of the IT (Customer Service, Level Two) granolas said to me that we should have internet voting.
I asked him if our software worked 100% of the time: “No.” was the response.
“Then why should we have Internet voting when it’s not 100% reliable?” I asked - (BTW - the reliability rate of our software was less than 70% and he knew it).
“It’s better!” he said, “you can trust it.”
“I do not trust ANYTHING on the internet,” I replied.
He ignored me.
He did get reprimanded for stealing multiple cups of single-serve ramen noodles that were in a barrel for the annual Thanksgiving food drive.
He was making tens of thousands of dollars a year and he took food intended for the needy at Thanksgiving.
I mostly despise granola types as they cannot be trusted.
I am not anti-ramen to set the record straight.
Thank you! I am so glad you shared that!
I am so calmed by your vignette. So much so that for now, for the rest of this restful Sunday, I can piss fullstream without thinking if Sankara in Ouagadougou, Birkina Faso told his dogs to be quiet.
