Stop in for a cup of coffee

To dad, are you a subordinate claus?
Naw, I'm a free-range Claus. I'm not obligated to the family business routine, but I do consult back for optimization of logistics and manufacturing technology under contract.

Otherwise I am free to engage in other activities as I see fit. Even the Old Man Santa can't constrain my activities as long as I am available to support the family business as dictated in the "Dave Claus" clauses of the contract...
