My shift isn’t over until six, ” I say glumly.“ Hold on, ” he says. He pulls a Blackberry from his coat pocket and taps out a text. It buzzes, and he taps out another text before stashing it back in his pocket. “I think you can take the rest of the afternoon off.”“ I only have a week left, but my boss would kill me, ” I say.“ I’m your boss, Anna.”“What do you mean?” There’s that smile again, the one with all those teeth. “I just bought Walmart, ” he says.

About This Quote

This is a great example of paradox. When we live in our heads we always ask what we’re going to do and what we’re going to get and how we’re going to manage our time and life and be successful.
