I recently asked a friend, 'Has your son decided what he wants to be when he grows up?'
'Yes, he wants to be a garbage collector', my friend replied.
I had to think about that one for a moment. 'That's a rather strange ambition to have for a career,' I finally managed to reply.
'Well,' said the boy's father, 'he thinks that garbage collectors only work on Tuesdays'.
'Yes, he wants to be a garbage collector', my friend replied.
