Things people say...God, I wish I had a easy job like that.

Hey you should send me a resume, I know some places that are hiring.

It must be nice having a wife who makes so much

money you can stay home.Man, I would so love

to be doing that.

U phill

The harder it is the more exciting it is.

S urprise

Everything is a game if you are up for it.

Surprise

Use it don’t spend it

They have their own

If it’s not a struggle it’s not worth it

Let them surprise you.

Be genuinely interested in what they want to say.
