En el aeropuerto de Santiago un cocinero trabaja a vista y presencia de los comenzales del restaurant con su gorro y traje blanco. El cocinero está inequívocamente vestido para la faena, no está disponible para otra cosa, tiene un tiempo otorgado, no es algo por lo que pasa, está sólo en eso, está investido. Estar investido de atuendo, hay una investidura de destinación, ¿ambas investiduras a la vez constituirán el estar consagrado?

English version by Mary Ann Steane.

Invested

In the airport of Santiago a cook works in the view of the diners of the restaurant with his cap and white dress. The cook is unmistakably dressed for his job, it is not useful for anything else, it confers a time, it is not something for whatever happens, it is only in itself, it is invested. To be invested with clothing, is an investment with destination, while the two investments may both constitute ‘being consecrated’.
