reason 78 you aren't getting that promotion

so i'm sitting on the subway on the way home today, tired as hell. when this woman get on and stands next to me. she look completely professional. conservative black suit, button down light pink shirt, heels, leather brief case, the whole deal. i notice her ring. her hand is next to my face because she's holding onto the pole that is attached to my seat. at first i think she is just wearing a cheap jamaican pride type ring, you see them everywhere in brooklyn, but then i let my eyes focus on the ring... it has a marajuana leaf on it and it says "ganja" across the bottom. now what in god's name compelled this woman to wear this to work?!?! in what work environment is this ok?! not in my office, that's for damn sure, and she's wearing a fucking suit! and i bet she's wondering why she got passed over yet again for that promotion...
