OTOH, I *do* (to a relative degree) enjoy understanding what he's working on and what's going on in general. Some days you get the cupcake, some days the broccolini. Some days I enjoy the conversation, some days I'm meeting a need. Savvy?
I savvy, but you still get the cupcake. I don't.
I don't enjoy it per se, but I enjoy being able to give him that listening ear by free choice. "It's just a little service we provide."
In return for this "service" you get the reward of the cupcake. How long can your altruism keep providing this service without the reward?
