Managers Throwing Their Weight Around

| Working | November 27, 2014

(It’s a weekday at the beginning of the school year, so the building is dead. A friend of mine wanders in, so I’m talking to him at the prize counter. Two of my managers are at the cash register, cleaning up in front.)

Manager #2: “Nuh-uh! It was [Manager #1]!”

Friend: “…yeah. You guys need more customers.”
