Employee of the Weak

Coming out with breakfast in my hand, I confidently stiff-armed the door out of my way and stepped onto the street. But with a quick glance behind me, I saw that the door had swung back with a vengeance into an old lady with white hair who was having a bit of a struggle managing her coffee and multiple attacks from the rabid swinging door at the same time.

Needless to say I immediately backtracked to help her, apologizing profusely.

"I'm really sorry", I said, "I didn't mean to do that."
"That's quite alright", she replied brightly.
"No", I said, "I'm an ass for doing that - an ASS."
"No, you're alright, it's ok."

She turned around and walked away, leaving me with my internal struggle. "How can she not think I'm an ass?", I wondered; "I AM an ass for doing that." I resolved to prove it to her.

At that moment another old lady came up to the door, and was having even more trouble with it than her gnarled predecessor. I gazed on at her pitiful struggle, impassive, and immobile.

Mission accomplished.
