accepting feedback

and not doing it exactly as told



when I accidentally walk into the wrong meeting and they all stop and stare at me



when it’s been slow and I finally get put on a project



when I’m told, nonchalantly, that I need to start over



when I’m not at my desk and somebody tells me there’s free food in the kitchen



when someone comes up behind me when my headphones are on



when someone starts talking about that one semi-famous campaign they were part of in ‘96
