The meaning of frustration...
Ok so, the dealership i work at is having an off site sale. Good right? In theory, yes. I guess they didn't take into account that one of the guys
working said off site sale is a kiter. They put it right next to a huge field on a windy day. WHY!?!?!?!?!?!
This is about 1/4 of the field....
Sure boss, I can focus on selling cars...

It is pretty funny actually. I wonder if kiting at an off site sale is grounds for termination....

Perhaps it would help your state of zen to think of your time there as just a reconnaissance/intelligence gathering trip.
It's not like aliens are going to fold up the field and haul it off after the sale.
 
Of course, there is always the possibility that the Universe is just messing with you.

Then there is the attraction factor that a large kite in the sky tend to have on the driving public. They just have to slow down and see what is
going on, and what better place to pull over, than at a car lot? Tell your boss it's a hook to get people in there! :bigok:

I thought it was a great idea even before I read that Bobalooie thought so too. You should argue for a half hour and see if it makes anyone stop.
Wheels will help with the attraction factor.

At one of the local fields, the state police actually like it when there are large kites in the air. It tends to slow down traffic, with a
surprisingly low incidence of distracted fender benders.
