heart-to-heart with mr. t.

mr. t and i just had a meaningful conversation. we were talking about how we're worried about a co-worker. he told me i am a good person.

i said, "despite the fact that you think i'm a complete jackass, i really am a good person."

he said, "you are about 50% jackass and 50% good. the good makes up for the jackass."

he added that sometimes he needs a constant reminder that jackasses do exist. "sometimes i forget that there are jackasses out there. then i see you and remember they do exist."
