Printer line instead of the coffee station this time, same deal though. A coworker started telling me about a scheduling mess with her manager and I said I had a call in 5 minutes and walked off. Felt less rude than I thought it would.
Got through the shoulder rolls before lunch again too, 3 sets, no skipping today.
What I kept:
– short walk at 12:15, phone left at my desk
– said no once, didn’t over-explain it after
What I didn’t keep:
– the water bottle thing, still sitting there from Monday
Nothing dramatic. Just wanted it on record that the second no came easier than the first one.
