Laying hands off the matter!

Any working wife and husband would indeed talk of markets and their job security now, don't they?

Husband: Sun Microsystems has announced it finally!!

Wife: Citigroup did it too!!!!

Husband: Hmmm... so what does your company have to say?

Wife: No clue. Fingers crossed.

Husband: 'Wait and watch' is the mantra. No other go anyway.

Wife : True. So how are you going to take care of me after lay-offs?

Husband: ?????!!!!!!!

Whatever happened to gender-equality and equal opportunity? Exploiting the edge, huh? :D
