story from a job: max

I hope you get some damn good stories to tell from your new job.

Ie: the mailbox at the front of the house reads, 'The Honeyhill Family' but the some of the letters are missing so it actually reads 'Te H neyhill Fa ily.

Zeeee Zeeee. They have a high tech buzzer. A kid answers but you can clearly see the moms silouette in the back of the house.
" Hey kid..blah blah ...is your mom or dad at home?"
"Uhh maybe." to the side " MOOOOOM"
She come from the left. I guess the woman in the back wasn't her after all.
"Hello there ma'am, how are you doing on this fine day?" Its actually like 89 degrees, 100% humidity, your sweaty, you need to pee, haven't had anything to drink for an hour but it was something sweet so your mouth is sticky. sticky.
" fine"
"Well, blah blah blah blah" (your programmed speech)
"No."

Your mouth is still sticky.
