I worked at a strip mall that used to have a toy store run by the grumpiest old bastard you’d ever meet.
I always wondered why the hell he was in that business when he clearly hated kids.
I’m sure a bit of it was all the years of kids getting boxes sticky and what not but damn maybe retire or something. I used to compare him to a character in a movie a saw back then “nobody tells DJ Request what to play!”
Get a different job man lol
