Not all the good laughs I get while on the clock come while making deliveries...
Yesterday, upon completion of my route, I returned to the warehouse to overhear "Jake" (who, we have previously established, isn't the sharpest tool in the shed) talking with "Bobby," my boss. Jake was bragging about his upcoming major purchase. "I'm getting my new car soon! I'm gonna get one of those new (Mazda) Pro-teeges."
Obviously, he meant Protege, so Bobby prodded, "Isn't that pronounced 'Pro-teh-zhay?'"
Jake stood his ground and proclaimed, "No, I'm pretty sure it's 'Pro-teege."
With a chuckle and a shake of the head, I punched out and drove away in my Dodge Car-a-van.
