FRANK: I’m a dead duck!

TONY: Why do you saythat, Frank?

FRANK: I haven’t beenable to quit smoking. I told my wife I would quit by the end of the year, andthat’s next week!

TONY: Maybe she forgot!

FRANK: I don’t think so,Tony. My wife has the memory of an elephant.

TONY: Why don’t you tryquitting cold turkey?

FRANK: If I do that, I’llstart eating like a horse.

TONY: A little bird told me about a patch you can wear on your arm. It will take the craving away. Andbesides, you’re the top dog at the garage. I’m sure you can enforce anon-smoking rule to help you quit.

 

 

FRANK: My position at theshop isn’t that important. I’m the best grease monkey and I make goodmoney, but...

TONY: You’re right. Youdo make good money, not chickenfeed. And the boss listens to you.

FRANK: I agree. He doeslisten to me and he knows I work hard, but others don’t work hard and he allowsit.

TONY: I know! Doesn’tthat get your goat?

FRANK: It does...and justyesterday I searched everywhere for my tools, but I couldn’t find them. Do youthink someone took them?

TONY: You went on a wildgoose chase? I smell a rat! Did you ask Tom for your tools?

FRANK: No, he’s kind of alone wolf and I don’t trust him to give me an honest answer. He’ll justgive me some cock and bull story like the time he broke my snowmobile.

TONY: Are you going tospeak to Tom?

FRANK: No. I’m quite surehe took them, but you can’t change a leopard’s spots, so I’m not goingto waste my time.

TONY: Are you going tospeak to the boss about Tom?

FRANK: No, I don’t thinkso.

TONY: Well, Frank, the boss knows you’re an eagerbeaver, so at the very least I’m sure you can get him to put up anon-smoking sign.
