Conversation I Overheard:

(not verbatim, but close) A Literal Child: When I turn 18 next month and can run the forklift, will I get a raise, or will I still be making 6.5% over minimum wage? Manager with ~$1,000,000 Net Worth: lmfao, whaddya want me to do, dip into my retirement savings? Note: He & his wife are “splurging” by spending a month in Maui next month. I say “splurging” because the original plan was only a two-week trip.
