Married but Separated

VA: So Medtronic gives birth mother 6 months of leave with the healthy pregnancy program and stuff Jeff: 6 months??? What?? What is this, Europe? No way! Where did you hear that? VA: Yes way! I asked Eric Trotter. He's better at reading than you. Jeff: No way, I'm going to look into this. [3 hours later] Jeff: I am wrong. It is 6 months of leave for the birth mother with combination of stuff. I am bad at reading. VA: You are the worst at reading. Jeff: Did Eric use that with his wife? VA: They don't have any kids. Jeff: So how did he know the policy? VA: I asked him to look it up and he did. BECAUSE HE IS MY ACTUAL MEDTRONIC HUSBAND. HE DOES WHAT I ASK HIM TO DO. EVEN WHEN WE ARE SEPARATED. Jeff: [laughs] Yeah, accurate
