One of the perks at working at my current job is the fact that we have an old-fashioned gumball machine in our break room.
It wasn’t until about a month ago that I realized these were free. Up until then, I would walk past it and admire it thinking, “Man, I’d love to have some of those….”
One day as I was standing there admiring the beautiful machine, one of my friends walked up and said, “You know those are free, right?”
Oops – all this time I had been missing out!
From that point on, every day I would go by and get a gumball at least every half-hour, sometimes more. It made my day. A nice, round, colorful ball of pure sugar-heaven, melting in my mouth at every chew. Can’t you just taste it now…..?
And then one day tragedy hit the Elekta break room.
THE GUMBALLS WERE GONE!!!
I guess I’ll have to take satisfaction in knowing I ate the last one….. :-)
