Sometimes, little gestures of thoughtfulness from your colleagues and friends or even strangers, leaves a deep impression on you. Even the smallest act of kindness reminds you of the goodness that exists in this world and your faith in humanity is restored. Your day begins to look good and you feel a spring in your step and a smile taking possession of your lips.
One such story touched my heart today. My friend who sits a little further way from me was telling me of her colleague who moves out of their shared work area to attend to her mobile calls. This ensures that my friend is not disturbed as her colleague needs to settles issues with training vendors, which necessitates shouting, screaming, abusing and not so kind references to their ancestors.
Now the kind colleague walks out of her work area and shouts, screams, abuses and makes not so kind references to the vendors ancestors...in my work area! So thoughtful no?
We are planning on reciprocating the nice gesture by taking her mobile, and flushing it down the toilet. Friday looks rosy already!
Have a great weekend folks!
lol... good luck with that!!!
ReplyDeleteSo in the way of returning a kind gesture..great!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteI quite didn't expect that. LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh... that was hilarious, truly!
ReplyDelete...n TGIF; happy weekend to u as well!
Highly annoying behaviour that is. Don't you all have a meeting room or something that people can use? I mean where u can take this colleague and give one smack next time s/he do it?
ReplyDeleteBeing quite used to your antics (through your blog of course!), I did quite expect that! :p
ReplyDeleteGood Luck, Silverine! :D

ReplyDeleteis the mission successful already?
ReplyDeleteSeriously you should do that :)..happy weekend to you too
ReplyDeleteI have no one to shout at. I'm right down in the bottom of the pyramid of screaming. Its a sad case. Something needs to be done about it.
ReplyDeleteJust the mobile?
ReplyDeleteNow it's Friday. How did the flushing go? Is it my poor vision or am I really seeing a black spot around your left eye?
ReplyDeletehahahaha...the way u started the post i was wondering how come i'm reading a sensitive, undersatnding n most importantly non-humorous post at silverine! but then u being u ended it with a flourish! :D
