There's people at work and other places where I genuinely like them, but they start talking and I just want to blow my brains out while they drone on about whatever monotonous topic they've been thinking about that day. I feel bad avoiding them but it's just too much with some people., to the point it actually drains my energy.
That's crazy!

I did not keep that costume. A&W are militant regarding the Bear Suit.

Greyhound got sued over that suit (and lets be honest....me) TWICE!

They are very protective of that Bear Suit. Initially I had no idea. I figured..."its just a mascot costume, who cares?"

Oh A&W does. Very much so. And they are litigious! They will sue you.

I was 20 years old and thought it would be hilarious. And it was.

But there are some Execs over at wherever A&W Canada headquarters is that thought very differently. They were not happy.

I dont know what they got out of Greyhound for those lawsuits because that never trickled down to me.

I just thought it would be funny.

As an introvert it's a struggle engaging in any conversation.
