I looked around for a ledge on which I could place my coffee, to no avail. Then I noticed a woman leaving the same Dunkin’ Donuts, with the same dilemma and the same puzzled look on her face. I approached her, smiled and, without saying anything, reached out for her coffee. I held it while she opened her umbrella, then she did the same for me. “Teamwork!” she exclaimed. “Have a great day!” And I did.
