Who Are "They" Anyway - Part XXXI

I pushed open
      the bathroom door
            and walked in.
The place
      was empty
except for one guy
      washing his hands
            at one of the sinks.

I went to another sink
      and turned on the faucet.

“Nice day, isn’t it?”
      he asked.

“Not particularly,”
      came my glum reply.

“Gotta problem?”
      he queried.

I looked over
      at him.
I didn’t recognize him,
      but that
      didn’t mean anything –-
            it’s a big organization.
