My new job
A conversation with the new boss:
Fiona: Mama, what's a cyclops?
Me: A cyclops is a monster with one eye.
Fiona: And one ear.
Me: Well, I don't know about the one ear, but I know he only has one eye.
Fiona: No, he has two eyes.
Me: Nope, that's pretty much the definition of a cyclops, just one eye.
Fiona: No mommy, you're wrong, a cyclops has two eyes and one ear.
Me: Sigh...
Fiona: Mama, what's a cyclops?
Me: A cyclops is a monster with one eye.
Fiona: You're right, mommy. A cyclops only has one eye.
*Silence*
Fiona: And one ear.
It's like I never left my old job. At least the benefits are good.
