Underling-Boss Conversation
Trust me…this conversation really happened.
Underling: Sue, I heard you are having a birthday soon. Wow, how old will you be?
Boss: I’ll be 29.
Underling: Gosh, and you’ve done a lot already! That is great!
Boss: Well, I just had 3 years of college and I immediately started working.
Underling: Even then…experience is always better than a degree.
Boss (with a painful expression on her face): Imagine, imagine where I would have been now if I had your law degrees and my experience!
Underling: Well, Sue…if you had my law degrees, you wouldn’t have your experience.
Boss then walks out of the room without a word. Underling is at present busy arranging a surprise party for her boss and wishing that she had just kept her mouth shut.
