We will come get you and bring coffee, and once we know you’re fine, we will probably make gentle fun of you. -Your success is our success and we will celebrate your wins as though they were our own. -If your partner is dumb enough to break your heart text the word pineapple and we’ll help you hide the body. -But don’t expect us to respond to every text message or phone call. That’s not who we are and definitely not what we do.
