A typical Friday morning

While I sit at my desk, my phone rings.

I pick it up.

Beau: Whatcha doing?

Me: Oh, just sitting around, doing some editing. 

B: Do you have a calculator on your desk? 

M: Yup.

B: I need you to add these numbers for me.

[He lists them off, and I give him the total.]

M: Is that all you needed?

B: Yeah, I'll have to call you later. I'm working.

M: Ok, bye.

I put the phone down and my cube mate asked Didn't he just call you from his iPhone?

He did. 

But he needed you to add those numbers? 

It would have taken much more time and frustration to explain where the calculator is on his phone [he's a technotard] and that he could do it himself than it took me to add the numbers.

We smile, chuckle, and go back to work.

In love, we pick our battles. :)
