/'manij/ verb
1. To be in charge of(company, establishment or undertaking); administer; run
2. Succeed in attaining one's aim, especially against heavy odds...
I think the definitions are very fitting.
I have been a big fan of Tommy Bahama for many years and some of you may remember the horrific fire of '06 when my wife in an attempt to save 50 cents per shirt decided to drop my Tommy Bahama collection at a cross town rival cleaner in Santa Monica, CA on the back of a Val-Pak coupon and the cleaners burned to the ground that night, all my Tommys went up in smoke, many were soon to be vintage classics. I have suffered from PTSD or Post Traumatic Shirt Disorder ever since.
I established a relationship with a cleaner in my new town. One of those spots where you can press and get a shirt or an entire run of shirts back same day if you ask nice. They take special care with your clothes, they come back about perfect and you pay for it. My wife in celebration of her 10 year jihad anniversary against my Tommys found one with a mild stain I was waiting to take to my cleaners and she decided to put it in with her slop and drop it off at her cleaners where not only does she have a coupon but they take other people's coupons...that right there should be a red flag.
Wife acts like she is doing me a favor and answers in the JLaw/American Hustle voice "You're Welcome" as she hands me the slip and says she had them remove the stain from my Tommy Bahama. I knew it was going to be bad but I get the clothes home and I take the plastic off and look right there...spot looks like it wasn't even touched. So now I have to go back there and educate these idiots on how to clean a shirt that was pointed out as having a spot when dropped off, they didn't put a piece of tape on it or nothing to alert the person later on there was a spot/stain. Then I won't be letting these idiots touch it again, I just want my money back, then take it to my place where they do a professional job.
I love being married.
