One of my employees didn't show up for work today. Normally, he is a pretty diligent individual, so when he didn't even call, I started to get a little concerned, and I called his home. His four year old daughter answered the phone and said "Hello" in a hushed voice. Our conversation then proceeded something like as follows--
"Hi Alice. Is your daddy home?"
"Yes, but he is busy."
"Well, how about your mommy?"
"She's busy too."
"Well are there any other adults there at the house?"
"The policemen and the firemen."
"Let me speak with one of them."
"I can't. They're busy."
"What are they all doing?"
"They're looking for me."
