I liked working at the Banff Centre for the Arts Library a lot. It was almost entirely due to the acerbic wit of my boss. Quite a number of people were turned off by him, but I thought his humour was endearing. I suppose I admire people who sport a 'I don't take no shit' attitude.
Two summers ago I attended a staff party at his house. I felt a little awkward and uncomfortable because I feel like a fish out of water when it comes to situations where work and pleasure cross over.
I started feeling a little more confident as the night wore on. My boss's four year old daughter was snapping photos of all the party guests. I leaned over to him and said,
"She could be the next Diane Thorneycroft"
"Or Robert Mapplethorpe. You never know" He replied.
