Question

Luisa ran through the back door of the coffee shop where she worked every Saturday. She shoved her purse in her locker and tied her apron around her waist.


“I hate being late,” she muttered. Her face was red from the brisk 10-minute walk from her house to work.


“Late?” replied Anthony. “It’s 10:59. Your shift doesn't start until 11. You are actually right on time!" he said in his friendly voice.


“If I'm not five minutes early, I am late," said Luisa matter-of-factly. Before Anthony could say another word, Luisa was off pouring coffee for customers.
