I am in Joe's office, and he is wondering how to reward me for the score on my evaluation...He looks at me...Would you like a Support Seven windbreaker....
Pause....Well....I probably wouldn't wear it....Thanks, anyway....
I thought you wouldn't...That's what I just told Gavin....Would you like one for John?
Pause....He already has one. You gave him one on volunteer appreciation night....Thanks!
Hmmmm....Well, what about an extra break on the day of your choice? And a Kitkat chocolate bar?
Perfect! Great! Thanks....And may I just have one minute to ask you about something?
Sure....Oh, wait a minute, though....In walks Linda, another Hopecoach, also here early for her shift...She is in her seventies, was brought up in a Catholic orphanage, and converted at some point during her adult years. She is our Hopeline "character"..We all love her...
Hey, Joe, can you do me a favor?
Sure, Linda
I want you to help me find out if my son is alive.
What?
I want you to help me find out if my son is alive...Someone told me I should look in the obituaries.
What do you mean, Linda?
The obituaries. Someone told me if I find an obituary then I will know he is dead.
Well, ordinarily that is true, but can't you just ask him whether he is dead?
Oh, I haven't heard from him in years...The police in Florida have looked for him and can't find him, either...I would just really like to know if I'll ever see him again...But if I don't, I know I'll see him in Heaven.
Well, how will I go about looking? What is his name? Ok...No, nothing there...What else can I type in? ...Nope, nothing there either....I don't think I can help you, Linda..
OK, Honey....Thanks for trying....See you later...
Joe: Now, what did you want, Barbara?

Wow. Were you able to talk to her about it more later? That's so sad!
Mom,did she find out anything about her son? Good job on getting a good evaluation! Send Ellie the KitKat!;)
Wow, Mom! You really do have some odd conversations on the clock. And that is HILARIOUS. Did you ask if they had any 80's barn-jackets you could choose from, instead?
