Overheard


between two twenty-somethings in line at Panera's
A: Mark said you took that job?
B: Yeah man.
A: Wow, when do you move?
B: August sometime. My start date's September 1st, so before then.
A: Hurm. To be honest with you, I was kind of surprised to hear it from Mark.
B: Why?
A: Well, I would've thought you and I were better friends.
B: Yeah. He was my roommate though. I had to tell him so he could look for a new person, or move or whatever.
A: So, if he wasn't your roommate, you wouldn't've told him first?
B: No.
A: Ok
B: I wouldn't have told you either, though.
A: At all?
B: If I could get away with never telling anyone anything, I would do it. In a heartbeat.
