Someone I met today owns a local lumber company. I got the bonus of meeting one of his team members.

He was nice and slightly hesitant about his purchase, but we had been making small talk and having playful banter. His team member was fun and playful, often making jokes at his expense.

Me: "How long have you had your business?"
Him: "25 years."
Her: "it's funny you asked, it's on our business cards."
Me: "Would it be funnier if I told you I just turned 26."
Her: "Yikes."

Eventually he and I got to talking a little more.

"Where'd you go to high school?"
"Sacred Hearts."
"I see. How's the reputation of the school?"
"Well, it's been a while since I've been at the school, but I hear it's doing well."

After a little pause, I asked:

"Why are you asking about the school? Do you have a daughter?"
"Oh no, you see, I went to Iolani, and I knew some girls who went there. They were a little naughty."
"Are you trying to say that I'm like that?"
"Oh no, not like that, you've been very pleasant. It's just been a while since then, so I was wondering."
"Well, it's definitely been more than 25 years."

His coworker laughed. But all in all, it was a fun interaction. Probably the best one of my day.
