Jane works in a small office. Her boss, although kind, is sometimes a bit foolish. He likes to keep lots of plants in front of their office to attract(吸引) customers.
It is quite useful. When Jane is meeting new customers almost every customer likes to have a look at the colorful plants.
Jane's another work is to water the plants. This is one of her favorite jobs to do around the office, because it allows her to spend some time outside away from her desk. She does it every morning before starting her work.
One afternoon, her boss came to her desk and kindly asked her to water the plants. "But sir, it's raining outside all morning..." she said.
"Oh! I see, so you didn't water them today. Why don't you take my umbrella when you water them?" the boss said.
