The other day I happened to walk passed a lady who dropped a piece or paper. Without thinking, my body and mind went immediately into ‘work’ mode.
“I’m sorry Madam, you dropped something.” I picked up the item and gave it back to the lady who was starring at me weirdly. My brother gave me a questioning look. I felt extremely silly and embarrassed for being so extremely polite by calling her ‘Madam’ . And to prove that I’m such a horrible ‘worker’, I should have said “excuse me” instead of “I’m sorry”!
Occupational hazard indeed.
