When The Cat’s Away, The Mice Will Play Volleyball

Customer: “Excuse me, but the back corner of the store is dark, and the lights are off.”

Me: “Oh! Give me a bit and I’ll go see what the issue is.”

(I go to the back room to see what’s up. As I get closer, I hear laughing, I open the door and see Coworker #1 and Coworker #2 laughing and holding an inflatable ball.)

Coworker #2: “Hi [me], we’re playing back room volleyball!”

(I don’t say anything and lean over and flip the light switch back on.)

Coworker #1: “Oh, s***! How long has that been off?!”
