People at Work

Many years ago when I was teenager in Cape Town, South Africa, I was asked to hand out flyers for a car wash at a mall. It wasn’t just me. I was with a group of friends around my age and some of them felt quite embarrassed at being there, and made it known through their complaints, body language, and attempts to hide their faces when passing out the flyers. Then one of them spoke and said, “to work is noble”. His mom told him that.​
