Only Partly Thought This Through

(My husband and I are discussing his father’s plans for an upcoming vacation. I am curious about how it will affect his job, as he has been employed for less than a year.)

Me: “How long is your dad going to be gone?”

Husband: “He says a few weeks.”

Me: “Is he going to quit his job, then?”

Husband: “Nope. I asked him if he had any vacation time, and he said that because he’s part-time, he can take as much time off as he wants.”

Me: “And he thinks he’ll still have a job when he gets back?!”

Husband: “Yeah.”

Me: “Can I live in your dad’s world?”
