Here is a funny story that happened to me last week at my internship. A few days ago there was a snowy day in the city but didn’t appear to be anything too unbearable. Around 4, my boss asked me to make a run down the block to pick up a gift bag, tissue paper, and a card to gift to one of our artists. To show the artist their new selection, we gave them some of the new merch that they would hopefully wear and promote. My boss was going to be in a meeting for the last 2 hours of my work day, so I just had to text her with updates.

You would think only walking one avenue would be an easy feat. Normally, the walk would take only 5 minutes, but with the elements of wind, snow rain, and traffic, 5 minutes slowly turned into 20. Just to get to the store. After maneuvering through traffic, I ended up getting to the store and unfortunately, they didn’t have anything that my boss really wanted. I had to just use my best judgment and show her a good resolution. Because she was in a meeting, I had to wait for her response in the store and she ended up liking my suggestion. Getting back to the office was a lot like this:

But nevertheless, the job was done.
