My boss’s 10-year-old stepdaughter comes to the office every day around 4 p.m. after school lets out. I make it a point to visit with her for a couple minutes because she’s a really sweet kid. Except for today.
I hadn’t seen her in a while and when I did today, this was our conversation:
Alexis: “Hey, you grew a goatie!”
Josh: “Yes I did.”
[There was a brief pause while I helped her hang her school award on her cubicle wall]
Alexis: “I think you should shave it off. It makes you look old.”
Josh: “But what if I am old?”
Alexis: “You’re only like fifty… and that’s not that old.”
[I walked away feeling old.]
