Are we showing off?

Haha! This is a great story. So for those of you who don't know, I am the Recreation Director at a Care Center, loving most of it! :) But this morning, just like every Thursday morning, I have meetings with Residents and their families to check up on Care Plans for the residents, etc., etc., etc. Well this morning we were in a hurry and walking past residents and after waiting for one family to come (and they didn't) we walked away, rather quickly. And when we got to the end of the hall, Megan (one of the SW's), asked the other two of us, "Do you sometimes think that when we walk down the hall quickly like that, it is like we are showing off?" Confused, we looked at her and she continued, "you know like, we walk so quickly when these people are in wheelchairs, and first of all can't walk, and secondly can't go as fast as we do. Like Betty (resident name has been changed) down there had been working for 5 minutes and only got 10 feet, and then once we feel like leaving we just blast past her!" I couldn't help but laugh! :)
But it does get you thinking...
