A Labor-Force Of Love

(I am in Boss #2’s office, participating in a call between Boss #2 and Boss #1, who is in the next office. Both are middle-aged males.)

Boss #2: *explaining a process* “Will that work?”

Boss #1: “Yes, that’s fine. I love you!” *hangs up*

(Boss #2 and I look at each other and burst out laughing, Boss #1 hears us.)

Boss #1: “What, what’d I say?” *we tell him* “Oh, sorry, I was just talking to my wife. Nothing personal. I promise!”
