conversation of the day

this verbal transaction occurred over the phone. a lot of my co-workers have trainees riding with them since we just did a mass hire.

me: do you have a rider today?

c0-worker: yeah

me: is he a douche bag?

cw: uh. why don't you ask him yourself. you're on speaker phone.

me: oh.

trainee (meekly in the background): sometimes i am.

me: that's alright. your trainer's always one.
