A different speed

For a friend, I purchased a gift card at a local coffee shop.

After the cashier activated the Christmas gift card, placing it in a holder, she had to put it in an envelope.

This challenge presented itself, the speed of the envelope the card had to go into, was not equal to how fast she had been all day.

Fiddling with the exercise, she figured to complete it, a down shift to the next clip had to occur.

Within second she reevaluated what she was doing in order to get it done. Moments added to the total time since she slowed down. Once finished, she looked relieved, handing the envelope with its contents to me.

I smiled, saying. "It seems the envelope was not at the same speed as you were."

She felt my sympathy and smiled back, saying, "I think you're right on that."
