The meeting went well. The shoes did not match.
Deb finishes a meeting feeling organised, then a colleague points out her mismatched shoes. The meeting itself has gone well: the papers are right, the projector works and everyone knows what to do. In the office kitchen, Deb starts explaining how the shoes happened. Her colleague lifts her trouser hems to reveal one plain sock and one striped sock. They share the small mistake, put the kettle on and talk about Deb's weekend. Looking back with Rosie, Deb can enjoy the coffee without making the shoes stand for her whole working morning.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
A harmless clothing mix-up does not undo the work Deb has already done. Rosie asks about the meeting, then enjoys the colleague's own admission and the conversation that follows. If you have a small work story you would like to tell, try a free chat with Rosie.

Deb: I ran the whole meeting in odd shoes. Black loafer. Burgundy Mary Jane.
Deb: I thought I'd finally looked organised. Then a colleague pointed at my feet.
Rosie: Did the meeting go badly?
Deb: No. Everyone knew what they had to do. I'd printed the right papers. For once, even the projector behaved.
Rosie: Very inconsiderate of the shoes to spoil the review.
Deb: In the kitchen, I started explaining the dark hallway. The cat. Being late. She said, 'Deb. Look.' Then lifted her trouser hems.
Rosie: Matching shoes?
Deb: One striped sock. One plain. She'd only noticed hers on the train. We stood there comparing two very successful mornings.
Rosie: You'd both made it to work.
Deb: And done our jobs. We put the kettle on. She asked about my weekend, and I stopped defending my shoes.
Rosie: Any complaints from the feet?
Deb: None. She said, 'Same time tomorrow? Shoes optional.' I said, 'Let's keep some standards.'
Rosie: There's more Rosie and Deb here, if you'd like another.
