FROM THE ORIGINAL EDITION
The Gallery
At four that afternoon, a product manager asked me to remove the word warning from a warning. It frightened customers, he said. We were talking about a dishwasher door that could fall open if the machine had not been secured beneath the counter. I had spent the morning making the instructions shorter. Now he wanted them friendlier.
“The door won’t be any lighter,” I said.
He smiled with the patience people use when they believe you have mistaken a commercial problem for a moral one. We agreed to ask the engineer. After the call I sat with my hand on the mouse and did nothing until the screen darkened.
Daniel’s invitation was still in my messages. A gallery opening, seven o’clock. He had helped the photographer hang the show and wanted somebody there who would tell him if the frames were crooked. I said I might come. He sent back the address, refusing to treat might as an answer.
