15 minutes later and I'm wondering if I should now adopt them as my own

Getting to work with your work-bff

That one coworker that just makes the shift a little better

Whenever that one customer yells at you for some unknown reason

Of course you can take it out on me just because I'm in a uniform, the customer is ALWAYS right ;)

Do I need the money? Yes but I also need to finish watching The Office for the 3rd time.
