My new boss is a fine fellow. He’s a California guy, by way of Louisiana, so this is his first experience with a real winter — and he’s NOT enjoying it.
I should also mention that he has a culinary degree.
Which might explain something that happened yesterday.
When I showed up for work, as usual, we discussed the cold. He happened to mention that the ice was pretty bad, but the salt did a fine job of getting rid of it.
I warned him he should probably wash his car frequently, but didn’t think any more of it.
Until after he left.
That’s when I was throwing something away and noticed a box sitting in the trash can.
Morton Canning And Pickling Salt.
I just hope I can explain the concept of rock salt to him without laughing too hard…
