Mommy, Daddy: Useless?
Daughter (exact quote, completely unprompted): “Why is it that the only job that isn’t very useful is working at Microsoft?”
Mommy: “It is useful. You know how doctors use computers to do their job better. This way we can help more people. You know, kids in other countries cannot even get shots to prevent diseases.”
Daughter: (horrified about shots) “Well, I don’t know…”
Daddy: “Yes, Bill Gates used computers and became the richest man in the world so he could buy shots for every child in the world”
Yes, I know it’s harsh, but she’ll thank me later…
