MG, do you ever have one of those days where you just can't get started?
Er, sure, Nina.
Oh, good! I knew you'd know what I was talking about! You and I really understand each other, don't we?
Sure, I guess.
Well, I was just going to run downstairs and pick up some Starby, so of course I thought I'd grab something for you, too.
Oh. Nina, that's really--
But, I am so having one of those I-just-feel-like-I-can-barely-move-a-muscle mornings. So I was thinking, if you would be a hero and run down for us this time, I'll be on point for it next time.
Oh.
I'll pay you back later, okay? I probably owe you a small fortune in coffee money, right? But that's okay. You know I'm good for it.
Um--
That's why it's so wonderful, and rare, MG, really rare, when people in an office understand each other as well as you and I do. It's almost like, in some senses, I'm not your superior. Like we're just gal-pals, right?
Er, sure, Nina.
