Just One Cookie...

Anonymous Sugar Petal #389 · General Confessions

So, I guess I'm gonna confess something that's been bugging me for days. It’s not about anything naughty or kinky... just a little thing that maybe shouldn't have happened but I just couldn’t stop myself from doing it. You know how in your job you always think there are certain lines you wouldn't cross? Well, turns out I was wrong about one of those... I work at this bar and we've got rules about snacking or eating anything that's meant for the customers while on shift. Makes sense, right? Keeps things professional. But something funny happened... I’ve been really craving cookies lately. One night, just before closing, there was a tin of chocolate chip cookies left over from a catering event. And let me tell you, they looked amazing. I had this moment where my mouth watered and it felt like those damn cookies were calling out to me, saying 'Just one won't hurt...'. But we're not supposed to eat them! Still, I couldn’t resist. I grabbed a single cookie and nibbled on it while cleaning up the bar area. And you know what? It was so good that maybe I had another couple before locking up... Ever since then, I've been wondering if someone noticed or is going to call me out. You'd think such a tiny thing wouldn't matter... but there's this little voice in my head that says maybe it did cross a line. So here’s where you guys come in, I need your thoughts: Am I being too hard on myself for breaking such a small rule? Was one or two cookies really so bad? I'm proud of the work I do, just not sure if this is something to worry about... So yeah... just a silly confession from someone who thought they knew better. Thoughts?
