My true boss

"Ficali, have an airborne."
"But Fran, I'm not ill!"
"Have an airborne."
"Why? I don't even feel a cold coming on."
"Just have an airborne!"
"But - sigh. What's the point. Okay fine."

So I had an airborne.

"Good. Now, who takes care of you?!"
"Erm.... you?"
"Good."

Safe to say, our receptionist is the boss of me.

Okay, so I feel quite ignorant... what, may I ask, is an airborne?

The thing that new yorkers swear by - a vitamin cocktail that apparently keeps coughs and colds away. Apparently invented by a school teacher, therefore by default this is the real stuff, as opposed to the fake stuff made by money-grabbing pharmaceutical companies.

Don't know much about it, except that it works. :)

Don't know how I missed this, as a New Yorker and all... thanks for the education.
