1) For a while, the top of one pair of my work shoes seemed to be pulling up a bit around the edges, on the left shoe. Then one night when I'm leaving work a few months ago, for some reason the leather top pulls up out from under the rubber sole on the whole front half of the shoe, leaving me with this floppy duck-foot mess that I have to hobble home in, because I have no way to reattach it and I have no other shoes on me and I have to get home somehow.
2) A few months ago when I'm discarding three bottle caps that had been thrown into the jar that holds the bottle openers when I'm at work at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work, I suddenly notice that two are from Sapporo bottles and have stars on them, and so when I walk into the kitchen to go throw them out into the trash can there, I start holding them up on the front of my shirt like they're my nipples, to make people laugh.
"What are you doing?!", my one (chubby) (Thai) coworker says.
"What do you think?", I'm like. "Who knows, maybe if I do this, customers will give me more money."
"Less!!!", she was like.
Later, too, I put them up into my eye sockets and laid them on top of my eyes and scrunched down my brow to hold them in place, and since I could see out around them a little bit around the edges, still, I'd hold them there like that and then I'd walk up to different coworkers like my one (newer) (female) (Guatemalan) coworker, who was quite delightfully amused when she saw me like that.
The things that boredom will do.
