Already picking out which client is going to finance my excessively long lunch.
New Hire: So, not to sound like a slacker, but do they ever let us out a few hours early the day before Thanksgiving?
MeetingBoy: Well, technically we're hourly, so if we left early, we couldn't get paid for it. Sometimes if we've worked long hours on a crazy project, they'll let us take a few hours off and bill it to that client. But if there's no client to bill it to, you can't leave.
New Hire: What? Seriously?
MeetingBoy: Yep.
New Hire: ...
New Hire: Okay, well I just can't live in a world where you can't leave a few hours early for Thanksgiving. I'm going to go get a bagel.
And with that, she disappeared. Not sure which client is going to finance her bagel break, but I'm already picking out which one is going to finance my excessively long lunch.
