Life is so, so hard

I'm working at ____, a very nice fashion magazine for the week. This is the sort of conversation that I've been hearing all week long.

boss 1: My life is just in chaos. I mean my secretary is gone, though you're doing a fantastic job.
me: thanks
boss 1: And I have to fire my nanny. So my life is just messed up.
boss 2: Was she stealing?
boss 1: We just can't trust her anymore.
boss 2: You just have to get rid of them if they act up.
boss 1: My little girl is going to be really upset, but my little boy is so young he won't even know what happened. We'll just take them away for the weekend, and there'll be a new one. He won't have any idea that we fired the other nanny.
