“Debbie who?”
“Debbie in accounting.”
“She’s filed for divorce and her husband is being a jerk.”
“Which she told you over lunch in the cafeteria yesterday.”
“How do you know that?”
“I have my sources. You’re also still very close to that oncology nurse. And I can’t take you out to a diner without having you flirt with whatever old tart is pouring your coffee and calling you ‘hon’.”
