I once worked for a business that decided it wanted to institute a tie policy. I don't like wearing ties. Never have. So in order to honor management's request I went to a clothing shop on Haight Street in San Francisco ... Aardvarks Odd Ark ... and for $10 bought 25 ties out of a barrel of ties they had. Some ties were wide ... some narrow. Some were shiny, others funeral home dull. Some were psychedelic ... one had a scene from "Fiddler on the Roof".
I started wearing the ties and before I reached the 15th one the tie policy was rescinded.
My boss asked me where I got the ties. I told him. He asked me how much they cost. I told him. He smiled and said:
"I think you may have overpaid."
I responded:
"They were worth every penny."
