I rode my bike to work today. The weather was cooperative for the ride in, if a little windy. By the time 5 o’clock rolled around, however, it was pouring rain. On my way home, I rode past a group of joggers. My first thought was, “Jogging? In this weather? They must be crazy!”

The normal mode of interaction with an individual acting in a customer service capacity is one of courtesy but detachment — hello there, I’d like to purchase this. Yes, that will be all.
