Retail: Testing the tensile strength of one's soul.

A few years ago, I worked in a big box Home Improvement warehouse. The HR person and I didn't always see eye to eye.


	Hey Lunch, remember last Thursday?


	Hmm, oh yeah. I got here and Rich was the only guy in the dept. that showed up. He was swamped with customers. So I got right to work.

Pretty much anyone who has worked in retail has been here.


	Yes, you did. You punched in at 9:27 instead of 9:30. You know that's against company policy.


	What can I tell ya, he'd been by himself since open. He needed help.

The bad part, I've had a hard time finding work lately and I'll be doing it again, soon. With a different company, though.


	That's 3 minutes, Lunch. THREE. MINUTES. The rules say you can't do that.


	Independent thought is kinda shrouded in mystery for you, isn't it?
