2005 vs. 2012
- I found an old coffee order in an email from 2005. It's kind of embarrassing and telling:
- Coworker 1: Venti Iced Chai
- Coworker 2: Tall Pumpkin Spice Latte
- Jennifer: Grande Mocha with 3 Splenda packets
- Second email:
- {Coworker who is picking up coffee},
- I am sorry to make things difficult, but I need to change the orders.
- Here are the new, correct ones:
- Coworker 1: Venti Iced Chai
- Coworker 2: Tall Pumpkin Spice Latte
- Jennifer: Tall, Non-fat Mocha, no whip, with three Splenda packets
- What made me change my mind? Did I suddenly look up the nutrition facts? And, more importantly, why did I think I needed three Splendas?
- The more things change (I've weaned myself off the three Spendas over the years) the more they stay the same (still particular.)
