(While waiting for his to-go food to arrive, a customer is making small talk with me about college.)
Customer: “So, what are you studying in school?”
Me: “Psychology, sir.”
Customer: “Why? That’s a stupid profession. You won’t go anywhere with that! All you’re doing is wasting Daddy’s money!”
Me: “Actually, sir, I am pay—”
Customer: “My daughter studied Psychology! She wasted all my money!”
Me: “Sir, I’m paying for my own college.”
Customer: “Dads always pay for college!”
Me: “Mine isn’t. I live alone and pay for my own schooling.”
Customer: “Whatever. Dads always pay!”
