So the work crew — four or five of us — go out to lunch, and I volunteer to drive that day, and Coworker-in-Front-Seat says “Oh, hey, I’m still wearing my government badge/lanyard, I don’t want to bring that into a public restaurant, let me take that off and stow it away.” He unloops the lanyard from around his neck, and… you guessed it… opens up the Jeep’s center console, to tuck the badge away out of sight, where he makes a most inopportune discovery.
Sa partikular, sa lockable center console ng aking Jeep. Kaya ang gawain crew – apat o limang ng sa amin – pumunta sa tanghalian, at ako magboluntaryo upang himukin sa araw na iyon, at katrabaho-in-Front-Seat nagsasabing “Oh, hey, pa rin ako suot ang aking pamahalaan badge / pisi, ako hindi nais na dalhin na sa isang pampublikong restaurant, hayaan mo akong kumuha na off at mag-impake ito ang layo. “Siya unloops ang pisi mula sa paligid ng kanyang leeg, at … nahulaan mo … bubukas up center console ng Jeep, upang mag-ipit ang badge layo sa labas ng paningin, kung saan siya ay gumagawa ng isang pinaka-hindi napapanahon pagtuklas.
