ON MEETING REMINGTON

January 14, 2015

On meeting Remington, wear a grey suit and no hat, or you might set him off. And believe me, whatever you do, you don’t want to set him off. Approach Remington from in front and toward his right side. Do not smile. Let me emphasize this. DO NOT SMILE. Instead, a quick nod will suffice. If he smiles, which he probably will, you might experience an involuntary need to shudder. To prevent this occurring, give yourself at least three hours before the meeting to quietly recite the mantra ‘Do not shudder’. When Remington dismisses you, back away slowly, staring down at your shoes. Oh, that reminds me. Shoes. A tasseled brown loafer on your left foot, a Converse high top on your right. I think that just about covers it. I’m pretty sure I haven’t forgotten anything. If I have, you’ll soon find out. ha ha ha. Kidding. Just kidding.
