Done with Applebee's

The other day I told my dad, “[Blondie] showed his two weeks’ notice to the man–”
Dad corrected me, “The way to say it is ‘gave two weeks’ notice.’”
“I know,” I said, “but, in this case, I wanted you to imagine him showing his two weeks’ notice, in the form of a letter, to the manager. He didn’t say anything. He showed her the piece of paper.”
“Well, that’s rude of him,” Dad said.

is a little later on."
