Smoothie Samaritan vs Office Drama Queen: Who’s in the Right?
In the end, our Smoothie Samaritan decided to hang up her fairy wings and focus on her own smoothie needs. Despite the Office Drama Queen’s accusations of pettiness and selfishness, she stood her ground, refusing to be taken for granted. But was she right to stop the smoothie runs altogether, or did she overreact?
