[quote=WANHU,481897]The two different scenarios, one to please their masters, and another to render the service to provide food for the colleagues.  In actuality, departmental or office politics never bothered me because I am not a dead fish that can be salted or fried.  To me there are procedures to be followed and my heart to weigh the situation.  If I drive a big lorry and someone riding a motorcycle passed through a red traffic light, should I insist of my right to  proceed, and knock him dead or I apply an emergency break?  I may swear with bloody moron, stupid cyclist, your mother should have choked you to death rather than be a public nuisance today, and all other filthy words I can remember, but I will never hit him because he may have other loved ones at home waiting fir him, or an infant waiting for instant milk formula, etc.

Will I do it again (buying box lunch)?  I will do it for my friends and colleagues and not because to please and praise another human being.  My colleagues too should feel the same.  If my friends and office workers later won't do it for me, then it is fair to reciprocate, isn't it?  One high ranking officer used to buy lunch for me, a few times.  Was he an errand boy?  Definitely not.  We need to start from somewhere to create a good office family and change the unhealthy "office culture".

In refusing, she could have said: I'm sorry I can't do that, you have to ask someone else, instead of I am not your executive assistant... it is impolite and uncultured.
