How fast does your day go?

Overheard an employee of a popular car rental place talking to a patron.


He asked her “So do you like working here over the other location?”


She replied:


“Yeah, I do. It’s busier so makes the day go by faster.”


Wait, what...??


I sat up in my chair.


Is that really a measure to rate your day by - how fast it goes?


We have only a finite number of days on this earth!


Do you really want it to go by as fast as possible?


Where the heck are you going in such a hurry?


I relaxed back in my chair remembering a time I once said the same thing. I was a trainer at a gym and couldn’t wait to get home. I quietly chuckled to myself because I mostly watched re-runs of Reba and took naps back then. It made the day go by faster...


Gosh, I guess I've come along way.


Thanks for the perspective.
