Reasons to Smile
Reason to Smile #22: Habits

We got a new copy machine at work.  It’s beautiful—big, smooth, and heavily layered.  After admiring it for a brief moment, I started to make copies.  I have always prided myself on my ability to punch in the passnumber at lightning speed, and I poked away at a frightening pace when I suddenly heard a loud “SMACK!”  Startled, I looked toward the sound and was surprised to see my hand bouncing off of a completely empty section of the copy machine.  Evidently, the manufacturers found a more efficient place to locate the “start” button.  Thankfully, nobody else was in the workroom.  I smiled sheepishly and gently tapped “start.”
