My Boss Asked Me To Buy Snacks Today
And as I walked towards the 16th floor elevator at 4:30 pm, twenty dollar bill from my boss in hand, on my way to the deli across the street to fetch iced coffee and ice cream for my co-workers (as I am merely a part time receptionist, hence, the one who is delegated to do such things), I realized something that I realize now and then but today I realized it even more than usual:
Every decision I had ever made, every time in my life I had been faced with a choice and decided “I will do that,” every action I had ever taken, every situation I had ever decided to put myself in and everything I had ever chosen to do had resulted in me waiting for this elevator at 4:30 pm, on my way to the deli across the street to fetch iced coffee and ice cream for my co-workers.
There is great power in decision and, for that matter, lack of decision.
I bought myself an iced coffee too.
