Wearing your glasses at all times…

…will save you from getting a big splooch of mustard square in the eye, as I was reminded recently, yea, moments ago.

Back in the time of the ancients I worked for a giant manufacturing company headquartered in New York, a company exceeding sensitive to certain legal matters to the extent its very highest officials decreed any company employee visible in any photograph released to the public (one of my own jobs) or used in company publications must be wearing safety glasses. There was an airbrush artist right across the street and to him we sent every photo that included anybody not wearing glasses to have glasses painted on. This was Photoshopping in the prehistoric era.

You, perusing our images so published might have concluded we were the most nearsighted company on the face of the planet, and understandably, but really we were just worried about the mustard.
