It’s my third email of the day.
I’m reading.
A member on the team is getting accolades.
I flashback to a conversation with his manager three years ago.

“He’s rough. Not sure he has it. Big Risk.”
“There’s talent there. Trust me.”

I send him a note: “I’m proud we’re on the same team.”

Seconds later my email is flashing with his reply.

“You made my day.”

I push my chair back.

And turn my back to my desk and stare out the window.

Good to be wrong.
