I’ve heard that phrase for years without ever really understanding what it meant. I guess it’s possible I’ve heard it as “Find your station in life”. I prefer to think that there is no station…
Anyway, This isn’t about the phrase per se, but about a moment when you finally understand something you thought you knew isn’t quite what you knew.

So…….can we start paying our “representatives” in chickens?

Yes…please don’t vote!
