Strange post, I know...I had a dream that I worked for Bernie last night (I know dreams are boring)
I was assigned as a temp to work for Bernie Sanders.
He was a lawyer (maybe a senator), and his office was outside. His outside area sat in a yard near some old motel that had been turned into low income apartments. He had stacks of files and paperwork all over the ground, and some sitting on a long buffet table.
When I showed up, Bernie was kneeling on the ground going over some papers. He handed me a stack of papers, and said he wanted me to organize them.
The papers were collectable pictures, stickers, etc that were given to him by an older black lady whom he was assisting.
The lady was trying to put her son or grandson through school and had given them to Bernie in hopes that these collectibles would help in getting her some money.
As I was thumbing through them, Bernie told me that when she first gave them to him, he didn't think they would be worth anything, but he was surprised—after looking up some of the artifacts—that they were worth over $20,000. I recall looking at some of them and seeing old stickers, posters, pictures. It was pretty cool.
I put them in a manilla folder and placed them on the banquet table. I then left because my work day was over.
As I was headed home, I remembered that I had left the lady's $20,000 of collectibles out on the table and I was worried they would be stolen. $20,000 gone because of me!
I hurried back and started looking for them in the stacks of files on the buffet table, but couldn't find them.
And that's how it ended.
It was great working for Bernie, though. And sorry Bernie, I hope you find that manilla file!
