instant karma

I bought some drive through at burger king. I pulled up to the window and was given my order and they went along with their business.

I didn't have to pay!

I sat there for a couple seconds - should I drive off and that will be my revenge on the world for being so depressed and that time I was cut off while driving, or do the right thing and get their attention and pay.

I gave them my atm card. They thanked me, like they meant it (as opposed to a "thank you drive through" verbal template thank-you) and I was on my way. I felt good, my food tasted better, I am an angel right?

Well whats the point? Does something good happen to me now? If I had driven away without paying would I have gotten in a car crash?


I've been training a person from customer service to work with me in the design department. I suggested that he brought over, even though the only work I'd seen from him were his illustration he's plastered all over his cube. He'd talked to me a few times about fixing things in photoshop and that he went to school. So far he's the only creative person here at work that does design that hasn't actually shown me a portfolio.

That ended up being a good thing for him. So far everyones work that I've seen is good, but not good enough. So by not getting a chance to dismiss him, he got in. In my experience its the good ones that just dont have time to showcase themselves (what does that say about myself?). Anyways, I had a good feeling about him, and so far he's been a good investment. Too bad he already works here, I'd get a bonus for finding a new employee.

So I've been training him, he only works a few hours after his other shift and he just fixes customer artwork so I have more time to do custom client work.

Maybe now happiness will fall into my lap.
