what does this little dialogue mean? Dean is a college intern working at Simon's restaurant. Simon: Do young people prefer large portions of food? Dean: Sure, but they like lower prices even more. After all, they're not making much money yet! Simon: Is that the voice of experience, Dean? Dean: Highly researched, of course. I don't quite get the last two sentences? Is Simon joking with Dean to mean that you also are one of these poor students or is Simon asking whether the conclusion was researched or pure personal experience? Why didn't Dean say: oh yeah, I have a lot of hands on experience with that? Thanks.
