#19 - The joy of shopping


The training course was happily over. It was my pleasure to visit in the middle of Texas prairie, but it was time to hit the road again.

The next day I was lucky to visit at our air conditioned office, because it was really hot outside. The last thing to do before driving to the airport was a visit to Toys R Us. Mr. H. needed to buy souvenirs to his children and I decided to do the same. I had really difficult to figure out what should I buy to my two children. When I finally managed to do it, I went to see how Mr. H was doing. His shopping basket was almost full, but at the same time it was half empty. That' when I realised that my colleaque had about a dozen children and as a gentleman he had promised to bring souvenirs to all of them.
For a poor shopper like me it was shopping until exhaust. However, our kids were happy to the souvenirs when I returned back to home.

Lessons learnt:
Do not promise to bring souvenirs every time you travel.
