(i've done the research).
So when me and my contractor/temp colleagues say **** the man and agree that we'll all fill our timecards in for 40 hours, log out, hit the bar and don't come in friday, are we pirates?
We ride there on our singlespeed bikes of course, though if you get technical, one bike is an ss because the der is broken, another becasue she doesn't know how to shift. Don't worry, there's a fixed pink nightmare marauding at the head of the pack.
I wouldn't mind getting to be a pirate so easily.
