No Need To Get Cheeky

| Working | May 30, 2013

(I’m teaching a new employee how to make a salad. One of the ingredients is an apple.)

Me: “So, you will slice the apple in half, then quarter it. If you want, you can eat the other half, or put it in the tin with salad so it doesn’t get brown.”

(Later on, I see him walking around. To my surprise, he has stuffed his cheeks full like a chipmunk.)

Me: “What are you eating?”

New Employee: “Apple, and I don’t think I can eat any more.”

Me: “Why are you trying to eat all of them?!”

New Employee: “You said I could!”

(It turned out that he forgot that he could save the other half of the apple. He had been trying to eat the other half of every order we’d gotten that night!)
