23 Things Only A Chocolate Shop Employee Will Understand
4. The Big Brother Manager
66688So it's a quiet, mid-week day; the shop is completely deserted, the surfaces are clean, and the shelves are stocked. You've even managed to coax the ridiculous chocolate bunny pyramid back into shape. You have nothing to do except stand and look welcoming for when the next customer comes in.
And then the manager rings from the office. He can see you on the camera, and want to know why you aren't doing anything. The Big Brother Manager is the eyes of God, and seems to spend his entire life watching every single thing you do from his seat of power in the office.
It's no use explaining that there's nothing to do, because there's always something that needs doing. So you get out the duster and go clean the front display for the third time, just to keep him happy. But God help you if you pause to talk to anyone else working on the shop floor at the same time.
