After a long tiring day at work, I stopped at a restaurant nearby for a quick meal.
Server: Hi, I’m Ursula. Can I get you something to drink?
Paulo: Yes, I’d like an iced tea and I’m also ready to order. I’ll just have a bowl of Soup and a Salad.
Server: Sure, no problem. What kind of soup would you like? We have Chicken noodle, Minestrone, and Cream of mushroom.
Paulo: Do you have something that’s Hearty?
Server: If you want something hearty, I would suggest our Clam chowder or beef Stew.
Paulo: I’ll take a bowl of beef stew.
Server: Great! What kind of salad would you like: a Chef salad, Caesar salad, or Cobb salad?
Paulo: I’ll just have a Garden salad.
Server: Okay, what kind of dressing would you like?
Paulo: What kind do you have?
Server: We have French, Italian, Ranch, Thousand Island, and Vinaigrette.
Paulo: Do you have Blue cheese?
Server: Oh yes, I forgot to mention blue cheese. Okay, that’s a bowl of beef stew and a garden salad with blue cheese dressing. Will that be all?
Paulo: Yes, that’s all.
…
By the time I had finished placing my order, I was even more tired. Do you sometimes feel that life gives you Too many choices?
