Business hammocks - are they less professional outside among the trees? Inquiring minds need to know!
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

We have hammock that we rarely use. I dig the concept of hammocks but question the reality of same.

Ann, that's a ferret.
After all this talk of hammocks, I need a nap. A dangerous mood before 8 a.m.
When I was a kid, we had a hammock on a stand in the back yard. (ND -- Talk to my parents. I didn't make the decision.) I remember being comfortable but also nervous about keeping my balance.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
When I was a kid, we had hammock hooks stretching across the back porch -- do those posts count as trees for ND?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Huh. Got out of bed and immediately fell over. I don't exactly feel dizzy but I have very little ability to keep my balance. Is this vertigo? Never experienced this before.

I was going to ask why the Oxford comma wasn't on the list - but are we all in agreement on that one?
I considered including it, but on reflection I concluded that we are overwhelmingly in favor. If there are outliers, well, they are wrong and I'm ignoring them. Just like ND on this hammock issue.

Oh dear, -t! That sounds potentially like vertigo, or something else No Good.

How about a hammock strung between a tree and a fence post? (I might be asking for a friend. Maybe.)

Thrive to spite them
I want a sunny day and a hammock. Instead I have a windy rainy day, no hammock and got asked to come in early to work.
We hired a new guy who was going to replace the woman who left. Only the new guy decided that retail wasn't for him or he was "booking gigs now" (he's a local musician) and he just doesnt want to do things he doesn't feel like doing (such as showing up on time, tucking in his short, etc). So less than 2 weeks after he was hired he gave his 2 week notice.
And has called out every shift since. Dude also said he was planning to give Nashville a try. He is 26 and from what I understand he is talented but I don't things is going to do well in a competitive place like Nashville if he only does things he wants to.
