It was one Martin Luther King, Jr. Day = while I was IWU. A piano was supposed to be delivered to one of the = gyms for the day's activities. Unfortunately, I arrived to check out = the piano <before> it arrived. So, I sat down at the end of the = bleachers (closest to the temporary stage), my tool case was on the = floor by my side. Before long, a very earnest looking man came up to me = and said that he saw me sitting there <alone> and he came over to me = because "he knew what that meant." Oh---how I longed to say, "You do?" = But I resisted temptation, politely thanked him for his concern (even = though I wasn't totally sure what his concern was) and told him I was = the piano tuner, waiting to check out the piano which was supposed to be = delivered soon.....
