    You completely missed the point of what I was saying and misconstrued it entirely. I never said they were contradictory, I said that the second line makes it seem like the first line is just what she tells people so she sounds normal, and the second line reveals her true intentions.

  • I get to WFH on Fridays, and I get to WFH all next week, so this is basically Friday for me because so little happens on Fridays that I basically get an extra day of the weekend when I WFH on Fridays.
