Cruel jokes

Mar

As if it wasn't hard enough returning to work today, a) I discovered that the car charger for my new phone was stolen by the thief, b) the highway entrance nearest our house is closed for construction, causing me to take a clogged detour, and c) my favorite NPR affiliate started its pledge drive today. And I already gave to the pledge drive. I should be exempted from being subjected to the banter:

Person 1: "You know, Person 2, that last story was so interesting. It really exemplifies why NPR is so great."
Person 2: "That's right, Person 1, so If you value the stories like the one you just heard, if Morning Edition is a treasured part of your day, then you'll make your pledge right now."

Our NPR is in the second go round of your mentioned words "If you value these....blah blah blah". We likewise donated already. However, this is our second go round in 4 weeks.... make that the third. We also listen to NPR in WI as well as IL. Yes...they chose different weeks to hit the fundraising circuit.
