Indoor job

I travelled in a bus with a neighbor. We were both heading for work. At that hour it should have been light already, but this morning the black clouds were rolling in the sky, and it looked like rain.

- What an awful weather, my neighbor said.

I was about to agree, but stopped just in time. Now what could be good about this? Then I got it.

- Oh yes, isn´t it wonderful that we have indoor jobs? I asked.

Neighbor looked a bit baffled.

- I mean we are nice and comfortable, in a warm office, with bright lights and all! Outside it can rain cats and dogs but we are cozy and comfy.

She thought for a while.

- I never thought of it that way! That´s actually a good thought!

Well, I think so too. One more good thing in our everyday life.
