I had a button pop off my suit tonight. The suit is old. It was scheduled to be ‘retired’ after my recent shopping trips. Thin people don’t have buttons pop off their suits–I understand.
Scramble mode! Who has a straight or safety pin at the station? As it turns out, no one!
I ran to the shop where Dave, one of our maintenance techs, was working on a piece of equipment. With a pair of diagonal cutters and a paperclip we fashioned as temporary fastener. It’s good to work with people who are handy.
Hopefully the clip will last through the night. Gratefully I don’t have to go through any metal detectors this evening.
