The Mind Can’t Be In Two Places at the Same Time
This morning, I went to the company’s restaurant to have my breakfast.
My co-worker Mei came and sat next to me when I was eating. She asked me to await wait for her and we would go to office together. Just then, my sister gave me a call. My sister told me that she had was in a bad mood this morning, because she had an argument with her husband. I tried to comfort my sister when I was getting up to go out of the restaurant, but I actually forgot to send the dishes back to the recycle bin. After I recognized my negligence, Mei has helped me to pick up those dishes. Suddenly, with a big "Bang" noise, of “Bang”, all of the dishes were fell on the floor and were broken. The whole restaurant was dumb silent and all heads were looking toward us. I suddenly realized I made a mistake that when I reached stretched out my hand to take over the dishes from Mei, my hand didn’t wasn't holding the tray well as I was still talking call with my sister, so I wrongly directed the scene as I mentioned just now.
With a big sorry, I came to the manager of the restaurant and asked for the amends bill, but the manager said to me: “it is not need necessary, but pls pay attention to it next time. The mind can’t be in two places at the same time.” That’s indeed true and I will embed it into my mind.
