Woman 1: “Hey Margaret. So, what time are you leaving today?”

Woman 2: “Not until 5:00!”
Woman 1: “Uggh. That sucks.”
Woman 2: “No kidding.”
[Ed. note: These were two employees from my company. Never in my entire career have I heard the words “not until” and “5:00” uttered in the same sentence, unless it was more like: When is the four-hour financial review meeting going to start? Uggh. Not until 5:00!

I love my new company. I love it so much that I might fly us both to Massachusetts so that I can marry it. And then my company and I are going to adopt some babies. Lots and lots of babies.]
