I had a job interview yesterday and I had to dress business casual. Collared shirt, no tie, no jeans, and no sneakers. I had a nice button up shirt and some khakis, but I needed a new pair of shoes. I had the bright idea to get them thirty minutes before my interview. I was running a little late so I hailed a cab and gave him ten bucks to wait for me while I ran inside Payless. I grabbed the first pair of cheap decent shoes that I saw, got in line, paid for them, and ran back to the cab. As we started driving I took off my sneakers and threw them in my bag, then took my the new pair out of the box and swore loudly. There were two left shoes in the box. I couldn’t believe my luck. All I could do was shake my head and continue onwards to the interview. At least I had a good anecdote when they asked me about my day. I don’t know if I got the job yet, but I got it covered if anyone needs a left shoe.
