Why People Still Won't Let Me Babysit

A coworker of mine was out of the office for a few days chaperoning a field trip to Coloma, mostly noted for being the first place gold was found in California. Here is an actual conversation we had upon his return:

Me: How was your trip?

Coworker: Awesome, but I'm tired now. 

Me: Did you find millions in gold? 

Coworker: No, but I met a lot of great kids.

Me: ...can you trade the kids for gold? 

Stop looking at me like that, you're just mad you didn't think of it first.
