Caller: I'm despondent. I need to talk to someone. | |
Wendy: Sure, go right ahead. What's the matter?
Caller: I'm having extreme self-doubts. I shouldn't be here. | |
Caller: I'm thinking about quitting school and joining the Army. I see now that I'm not cut out for this petty competitiveness. | |
Wendy: You're a freshman who just got a 'B' on his first test, aren't you?
Caller: You mean I'm not alone? | |
