Survivor stories
“Tom owns forty-one lanyards, one for every badge he has never once swiped in with, and he hangs them from his desk lamp like wind chimes. The lobby turnstile now beeps "TOM" every time he walks past it, and facilities says it's "just getting to know him."”
“Tom was in charge of the bounce house at my niece's sixth birthday, which mostly meant standing outside it with a clipboard. Instead he took off his shoes, climbed in, and declared himself "the adult in charge," then stayed in there for the entire party while the kids waited in line and sang "A Couple of Toms" through the vinyl walls.”
“Our team bowling night had one rule: one bowler per lane. Tom rented all eight, rolled a perfect 300 on each one, then asked the alley to hang a banner over the scoreboard that says "TOM, ALL LANES." The alley said yes, and the pinsetter has refused to reset since.”
