• I feel like such a proud grandpa. I finally got a phone call from one of my fake grandsons, trying to convince me that it was my grandson. “Don’t you recognize my voice?”, he asked. Nice try.

• Interviewer: “What’s your favourite thing to do at work?” Bob: “Leave.”
• Interviewer: “Do you prefer Zoom meetings or face to face?” Bob: “Oh Zoom every time.” Interviewer: “Why is that?” Bob: “You can put Baileys in your coffee cup and nobody knows the difference. Just remember to be seen blowing on it to maintain the illusion that it’s a hot beverage.”
