Funny conversation from one of my friends (regarding her husbands layoff) and she isn't working, can't find a job...

(Friends cell phone rings, caller ID: its from her home... context knowing that today is the day his company, National Semiconductor, is doing mass layoffs)

Friend : "... oh crap..." (husband should be at work, sensing that her husband just got layed off and is calling from home)

(picks up phone)

Husband : "Hey honey, guess what?"

Friend: : "... damn it"

Husband : "I'm joining your fraternatity" (i.e. the unemployed)

Friend : "oh crap... now what?"

Husband : "lets go for drinks to celebrate. I think we should do a road trip to Mexico"

She's in a a panic, he's celebrating at his new freedom. It honestly made my day.
