All You Have to Do Is Ask
During a drive, my life partner Joanne was reminiscing about her first job as part of a high school coop. This is the short version of her story:
As diligent and responsible as anyone, she still made a mistake and was called on it by a supervisor. It meant that her job was in jeopardy because it was a significant problem. The owner was informed by the supervisor, but realized she could still be valuable. Thankfully, the man who had hired her for the job therefore kept her on. She was told, “All you have to do is ask.”
About a minute or two after she tells me this story, we are a mile up the road and pass an industrial building with a large sign that was painted on the side of the building, that read, “All you have to do is ask.”
