Don’t Grow Up To Be A Grown Up

(We’ve had a really long week of trying to get parts out on time and most of the problems are with the machine I run. While waiting for the machine to reboot for the fifth time that day my boss strikes up a conversation.)

Boss: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”

Me: *thinking he’s just joking as we’re currently working an ideal job for a career and trying to joke in response* “I still don’t know.”

Boss: “What about a unicorn? I want to be a Volkswagon.”
