Dilbertesque again

Wifey: I have to work till midnight tonight. Come and pick me up.
Hubby: At what rate do they pay for overtime?
Wifey: I don't get paid for overtime.
Hubby: Well, it must be some important work then.
Wifey: Not really. My boss wants me to change some "PowerPoint" slides for a meeting.
Hubby: Well, atleast you will be prepared for your meeting.
Wifey: It was cancelled. But that's okay because the project isn't funded anyway.
Hubby: So ... you want to stay till midnight to work for free on a presentation for a meeting that won't happen for a project that doesn't exist.
Wifey: Yes. At what time will you come?
Hubby: Ok. I will be there.
