My new custom stem cap
I changed my GPS mount to a mount on the handle bar so I wanted something original as a cap on the stem. I found a company that makes custom caps on line. I thought about what catchy motivational phrase, AA slogan or scripture would be fitting. Finally I remembered something I heard at work years ago.
We had a young curtesy clerk who was special needs. This young man was loved by everyone in the store. He was a hard worker, didn't have a filter and had a great sense of humor.
One day we were eating lunch and one of the cutters was droning on complaining about not being appreciated for something. As he went on and on this kid sat quietly eating his lunch. Finally it got quiet for a few minutes.
This kid looked up from his sandwich and said "You know everything isn't about you", the room began to roar with laughter.
The timing was perfect as his words deflated every ego in the room. From that day forward if anyone started complaining the response was "You know everything isn't about you".
This will be a constant reminder to check my ego every time I get on and off of my bike.
