Oakley

At my work meeting last night, we talked about a girl who runs the Oakley shop in her store.  They showed pictures of her Oakley room at home.  Yes that's right.  Her Oakley room.  She has five Oakley cases, one of which probably costs more than I ever intend to spend on total sunglasses in my lifetime.  Each case is full of Oakley sunglasses.  If you know anything about Oakley you know that their sunglasses run from $100-$300, with the exception of some of their limited edition glasses which are priced in the thousands.  (Our store has a pair that retails at $1,500.  That's more than the value of my car.)  Even at the great discount she is getting through the store, that's a lot of money.



A few things went through my mind as I processed all of this is: how do we work for the same company and she can afford this?  I never could.  Secondly, if I ever become that obsessed with an object, kidnap me, steal all my stuff, and knock some sense into me.
