I left my desk to take a brief stroll, stretching my legs and resting my mind, when I habitually held the door open for someone walking behind me.
“Thank you,” she said. “That was very courteous of you.”
I paused. “Courtesy had nothing to do with it. I’m just trying to stay awake from my desk for as long as possible.”
Thus, a new rule to surviving the corporate world emerged: “Rule #23: Be courteous.”
