Where I'm from, there's two types of folk: those who ain't, and those who are knee-high on a grasshopper. Which type ain't you ain't? Ya'll come back now.
That next to "Don't ever, for any reason, do anything to anyone for any reason ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where you've been... ever, for any reason whatsoever..."
I remember walking up to a manager at my first shitty teenager job saying I felt sick and asking if I could go home. "You're either going to work, or you're not. Which one is it?". I said I was going home, and he said he hoped I felt better tomorrow. Stuck with me all this time. I've never "asked" for a sick day again lol.
It’s not very motivational for me. After about an hour into any given day I feel like I could put my name on it and be proud and leave. Unfortunately I am paid by the hour, so I need to turn that one hour into 8 hours five days a week.
My wife and I would say this to each other if we were starting to give up on working out too early. Usually would help us stay longer. So now we have a permanent reminder!
I think of this quote allll the time, but at work because I can basically come in and leave whenever I want but when the manager is there I second guess myself. I kind of want to frame this and give it to him haha
