This is so ridiculous! All I was trying to do was request vacation time from that Artifical Intelligence Being and now I'm required to take a Cultural Diversity training by HR! Anyone who knows me knows I love rob..... Artificial Intelligence Beings!

Well, okay, just kind of thinking out loud, I could while away the hours consulting with the flowers ... I see your point, I might be up for a road trip. Let's see if the lion's doing anything.

I'm due for an upgrade anyday now. Not really sure why I'm wasting my time with you. The new version doesn't have the same programmed responses. It's really great. Do you know what they're planning on doing with all you old bots once the new ones roll out? Nevermind. They probably don't tell you. Yeesh. I'd hate to be you.
