Married To A Yes-Man
(Two of my coworkers married many years before I joined the company. They don’t both work in the same department, so one will often call by the other’s desk to talk rather than using the internal phone. One day, I overhear the following:)
Wife: “What do you want for dinner tonight…? Or, actually, I mean, ‘do you want to go out for dinner tonight or are you cooking?’”
Husband: “Yes.”
Wife: “’Yes’ is not an acceptable answer, dear.”
Husband: “Yes.”
