Manager-in-Chief

 


She would order the biggest

Combo breakfast

Hot coffee.

A good 20 minutes off

From gattling gun pace.

Judy would Master

The front counter, anyways.

Always did, with flair.

Specially for the Seniors.

So many new workers.

Mostly East Indian.

Very courteous but

So impractical.

And their English?

NOT.

The Owner had done

A Staff Sweep.

Ten months back.

Several good friends walked.

Oh well, the holiday

Was mid January.

Exciting.

The Dominican with Steve

He had the time booked

With Toyota.

Took some doing.

But they had it locked up now.

No one knew.

No one, that she

Was not coming back.

Cousin Leanne had

Convinced her about

Real Estate, and a 

Little more independence.

Civil hours, nice clothes

Intelligent transactions.

Law, negotiation.

Market was crazy

With inflated prices.

Fortunes to be made.

Fortunes.

And after a good 

Dose of sun and fun.

Getting re-acquainted 

With Steve.

She hoped.
