It's Only Words

It's funny ..... at work, trying to explain something to another person(s) who doesn't understand English and it's obvious that the message was not understood. So I repeat it, just a little louder. Then a third time with even a little more volume and emphasis. Like I think that's suddenly going to make my words clear. And so with frustration growing and no interpreter in sight, we all just give up and walk away. We all knew the question. It's just the answer that was hazy. And in the end it will all work itself out and we'll all eventually go home for a good nights sleep and the issue will be forgotten. Except for those who note such things in journals and blogs and who need an extra hour or two to forget.
