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.

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.”
