If you've ever been at an event I've planned you've heard me say it 100 times (or more)
A few months ago one guy in our office said to another guy "ask Margie to order lunch she's good at it".
Ohmyword. I was so offended. It went something like this "just because I'm a woman, why do I have to order the lunch, I mean, a guy can do it" blah blah
but it was so dumb because I LOVE ORDERING LUNCH and Bagels, and snacks and organizing all of it. I know who can't have nuts, who is a vegetarian, who is gfree... seriously...
You know what I think? Well I'm gonna tell you.
I think this small insecure part of me decided to rear her ugly head and the part of me who knows who I am forgot to shut her up.
Today, I ordered lunch, set up drinks a
nd snacks, picked up the pizza, salad, and breadsticks, arranged it all, put out cookies...
And it felt good. Because even though I'm a Sales Manager, a title I worked hard for, I am a feeder, a giver, and a care taker.
Should I be offended? I don't know. But I'm not. I'd be more mad if they didn't ask me, and that's the truth.
I am studying God and who He is, and finding out more about me in the process, and who He made me, and I'm loving it. Wait till October when I share it all with you.
