The Other Side of the Line

Have you ever thought about the strange collection of interactions you have over the course of a day? I do. Think about it: I, or one of our staff on the line, might ask one hundred and sixteen people in one hour if they'd like rice on the side. I might ask sixteen of you how your day was. I might see that thirty three of you are so consumed with work / life that you can't even look up from your tray. I might learn from twenty of people what costumes they are wearing to the Artists Ball...And on and on. At the end of the day, I rarely think about how odd the sum of interactions has been. Regardless, when I do, it humors me.
