The Office (Conversations overheard from my cubicle)

(After returning to the office after a false fire alarm)

Co-Worker #1: I have never been in a burning building. Has anyone else?

Co-Worker #2: Our house almost burnt down once when I was a kid.

CW #1: Really? What caused it?

CW #2: My dad wouldn't get out of bed so my mom set fire to the sheets

CW #1: Are they still married?

CW #2: Yep, still married

CW #1: See, those are the best relationships - where people express themselves instead of holding it all in and becoming resentful . . . .

Ahh, the old "light the bed on fire" trick. Haven't tried that one in a while...
