Just been told that I have to go into the office sometime in the next few weeks. To play a game about office safety.
In the midst of pointing out the stupidity of this to my boss, I suddenly realised that I don't even have a pass to get into the office.

Well, I don't go to church on Sunday
Don't get on my knees to pray
Don't memorize the books of the Bible
I got my own special way
I know Jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more
I fall on down on my knees every Sunday

So. Eye test done, and - shock of shocks - I don't need new glasses. Or contacts. My wallet can officially stop crying.
Also, they've got me excited to have cataract surgery. In 10-15 years.
