i can't believe there are work places where supposed adults act (are allowed to act) like such children. i guess it's possible, but it's just so foreign to me, as i've always worked in professional environments where adults have a very strong tendency to actually behave like adults.

i work in a small office where 6 out of 8 of us are at least fairweather, part-time bike commuters, but i'm the only hardcore, year-round, ride-through-anything nut-job, so the worst i ever seem to get from my co-workers is the incredulous dumbfoundedness when i ride in during especially crappy weather and they say "my god, you actually rode your bike today!?! you're nuts". now that i've been doing this for several years, i get it less often because my coworkers are all familiarized with the fact that i'll ride through pretty much anything (except thunderstorms: lightning paranoia).
