I give to you a story in eleventy-one words...
The two men wheeled the mini-fridge into the coffee shop and
asked where it should go.
A young Asian man, the owner, directed them to a seemingly unreachable
spot behind the counter.
The two men looked at each other and chuckled. ‘You figure
it out,’ one of them responded.
Displeased, the owner subtly uttered three words, ‘Do your
job.’
The men immediately lifted the unit onto the counter.
The owner persisted, ‘Finish your job.’
They stomped behind the counter, lowered the box onto the
ground, and maneuvered it into place.
The owner concluded, ‘You may go.’
They marched out.
The owner turned to me and smiled. ‘You will write about this.’
