Dive bum...

1: I don't wanna be a dive bum (dive for nothing?) forever, you know. Working other
people's vacations. Designing them?

2: Well, what about the San Cristobal, huh?
1: San Cristobal. Other than this, (without taking San Cristobal into consideration?)
it's been
four years of nothing but sand.
2: Well, you have to admit,
you've got a sexy boss. And the dress code is liberal. You can dress as you want?

And the health benefits (Something that helps you feel good?) are pretty good.
