There was a building site next to our office and I stood at the window and watched the workers. A colleague walked up next to me. We stood there in silence for a while.

Me: "Sometimes I wonder if I should just fuck it all and become a gardener."

Him: "Me too."

Me: "I'm serious."

Him: "Me too."

We briefly looked at each other with expressionless faces. In silence we watched some more. Then we went to the next meeting.

True story™.
