Evelyn:  You know what people love about me as a woman?

Nicole:  No, what?

Evelyn:  That I’m strong, in control and I get things done.  You know what people hate about me as a woman?

Nicole:  No, what?

Evelyn:  That I’m strong, in control and I get things done.

Nicole:  You know what?

Evelyn:  No, what?

Nicole:  You’re absolutely right!

Steve:  I’m getting old, I’m thinking about retiring, and I’ve got issues.

Evelyn:  So who cares.

Steve:  Just sayin’

Herb:  I’ve worked and slaved for so many years and I feel like I have nothing.

Steve:  That’s because you have nothing.

Herb:  Well, it was just a feeling.

Steve:  When you walk into your usual place to get a cup of coffee to go, and it’s already poured and waiting for you, do you consider your life to be too routine or something to be envied?

Nicole:  Routine.

Evelyn: Envied.

Herb:  Sometimes I get tea instead of coffee, so that doesn’t happen with me.

New Girl:  Why do they make hand soap and body soap?

Nicole:  Are you seriously asking this on a Monday morning?  By the way, who are you and when did you start working here?

New Girl:  This is my first day.  Just think about it.  Isn’t the hand a part of the body?  So why do they make separate soaps?

Nicole:  Evelyn, you explain it to her.  Anyway, I have a friend who took a second job to support her Starbuck’s habit.  She’s not too smart though.

Evelyn:  Yeah, really.  She could get fired for moonlighting. 

Nicole:  No, that’s not it.  I have another friend who also took a second job to support her Starbuck’s habit.  She’s the smart one.

Herb:  Why is that?

Nicole:  She got a job at Starbucks!

New Girl:  I drink coffee!
