Waiting for the Moment to Pass ...


This Canada goose waited while its mate took a few moments 
to de-stress. They were standing in the drive at work,
surrounded by parked cars and people walking in and out 
of the building. The black surface of the parking lot
must resemble that of a lake, especially when it's been raining
and water streams over its surface. Why would the geese be
so attached to it otherwise? Even the flat roof of the building would
be more private, a veritable goose spa, compared to the busy lot.
The geese leave turds the size of cigarillos and have chased some 
employees, so goose wranglers have been called in to limit
their presence. Other than the turds, I don't much mind them;
 they're the closest things to office pets we have.

Geese have to park somewhere. Instead of chasing them off you ought to make them buy parking permits.

And how would they pay? By putting it on their bills?

Hahahahahaha!

Maybe the other goose was actually trying to pay, reaching into her wing pocket for her billfold.
