"You have it too?"

"Yeah, it's great. I was an active editor for a while."

"Oh I'm jealous I can't figure out the culture quite well enough to feel like I'm allowed to do anything more than quick corrections."

"-I-probably? I'll get used to it if I have to. Does that not go.... badly? For people?"
