My wonderful dear husband works for the New York Police Department as a BOOKKEEPER and on occassion the men and women in blue totally forget their manners as well as their CPR (which stands for Courtesy, Professionalism, & Respect). This is what happened on Wednesday (7/20):
Two men in blue came into the office demanding to know why their night differential (overtime) didn't arrive in a particular check. Boo Hoo. They worked a major concert in Madison Square Garden and had bills to pay.
They let loose on Larry (he's a Libra -- the sign of the weights) who was having a bad enough day when they walked in and they didn't help. The two officers yelled and hollared at poor Larry who after telling the officers MANY MANY times that it was their time keepers fault for not filing the appropriate paperwork in time and that it would be processed for the following pay period.
They moaned and groaned about mortgages, bills, tuition, etc (we on the other hand are living with his parents.) At that time Larry blew his calm and cool facade and said "I don't give a s*it, bitch at your time keeper not at me."
The officers stormed off. I guess they realized they were in the wrong after the fact because on Friday they came in to apologize.
THEY CAME IN WITH TWO FRONT ROW TICKETS TO GWEN STEFANI AND BLACK EYED PEAS AND BACK STAGE PASSES for the sold out show in September.
Now that is what I call a very major "WE"RE SORRY"
Whoo Hoo.
Love, Kate
