Telling stories
The man I work for started his career in Market Research under the tutelage of a well-known professional in the field. Were I to give you his name you would likely recognize it, especially if you operate at all in the world of Evangelical Christianity.
During the course of events this morning, my boss and I were discussing how easily some lose track of time. Which led us back to his one-time boss and mentor:
"Yeah, he would focus so intently on one thing sometimes that he'd completely lose track of everything else going on. I'll never forget one day I'm leaving at 5:15 and he stops me on the way out asking me where I'm going.
"'Well,' it's 5:15, I'm going home.' 'Wow!,' he exclaims, 'it's 5:15? I should go to the bathroom.'"
Adds all new meaning to the phrase "Focused like a laser-beam."
