During a cigarette break at McKinsey's:

A: I haven't seen Bob in a while.

B: Yeah, he quit. Sells burgers for McDonald's now.

A: What? Is he nuts?

B: Yeah, Bob is a real downshifter. Sold his BMW, sold his house and is working part time now. Broke up with Linda too. She was high maintenance, all right. Says he is happy now; has all the time in the world.
