Today, when asked if I could stay an extra hour at work, I said "yes". I didn't have to, but it also didn't pain me to stay.
We had been consistently busy all day. The moment I cleaned up the dining room, the next crowd would appear. As soon as things wrapped up with diners, the phone would ring and carryout orders would be going full-speed. But for the first time in a long while, I was in the right frame to give my time willingly.
Staying DID affect my evening. I wasn't able to get somewhere I had planned, due to heavy traffic, before they closed. But in the bigger picture, it helped a team of people to have me stay for an extra hour.
