The Tuesday Interviewee

He established a pattern of interviewing on Tuesdays. Had one on 02/07, has one coming up on 02/21. Every other week. Kind of likes the pattern. The most exciting part is the opportunity to be interviewed by Jonathan Banks.
On those days he gets to dress up purdy. Socks without holes, fancy dress shoes, sharply creased pants, dress shirt, even a tie. Wow look at that boy. He is wearing a tie. Suit jacket.
He does it to please The Grand Inquisitors. They know its an act and irrelevant to the job being interviewed for. He knows its an act. But it is what is required so he does it.
And it makes him feel simply wonderful. To dress as expected, to speak as expected, to give them what they want, reminds him of the carefree days of childhood. When doing as you were told avoided spanking and sometimes resulted in candy.
This equation is not as simple. The candy is harder to come by.
If this is Tuesday I must wear a tie.
