24 hour conversation

my seven year old niece said to me one day.....

"do you think those people that work at the 24 hour stores get tired?"

the worry in her voice was too obvious and too cute...her concern for those that might actually have to stay awake all night at the store with no break was truly genuine....

to her great relief, my explanation of working in shifts helped to clear things up as she then commented......

"i guess that's why those people at the 24 hour store where not the same people that i saw there the last time we were there"
