Sauce-on-shirt, instant-coffee-disappointment, then missing the truck 😏 I understand why you were chagrined by it all.
Since eating on the move is the norm for you; Perhaps the gentleman would like to consider taking an extra set of clothing in the event of a spill?
Firstly, I blame the tomato sauce, not me.
At my last job I had an ironed shirt in my office, always white so it went with whatever suit I may be wearing. It worked well for when things would go rogue and end up on my shirt. I haven't brought one in here yet but I will. I have to work out which shirt to be honest as things are more casual here and a white shirt isn't really appropriate. I need to though. One never knows when tomato sauce, coffee or my lunch will go rogue.
But of course!
It's like when my mum's favourite glass would suddenly decide to jump off the kitchen counter and smash to pieces on the floor.
She'd blame me just because I happened to have been drinking from it.
...when 'anything' will go rogue, as a matter of fact.
It's always someone else's fault. Always. Even if that's the glass or sauce or whatever.
That's 100% correct 🤣
