Today at work one of the supervisors came to our area and asked about 5 people if they wanted to help in another area for a few hours, everyone said no and they asked me, I said yes, figured get away from the monotony why not.
So I get down there, learn about a new area, the other guy working there was a cool guy, we would get packages for customers and send them on their way, one of the customers was a pretty chick maybe about 30, she was giving off some serious IOI and I am sure I could have gotten the number if I wanted, then some of the big head managers came by and talked to me casually asking how I was in the job and what not.
Now if I would have said no and stayed in my usual area none of this would have happened, I understand this isnt a big or exciting story but it is important to me, specifically because when I was younger I would always overthink potential opportunities and neglect signs around me, a mixture of being shy, introverted and a disposition for overthinking made me miss a bunch of potential opportunities.
As I get older I jump on little stuff like this, you never know who you will meet, what you may learn, experiences that may turn into great memories or learning experiences.
