work stories

ask me if i’m a truck

so i worked in the summer time
part time with about ten guys
(since guys were stronger, they
could scoop ice cream better,
that was the idea). but they all
screwed off when they were
at work. they’d always write up
signs and tape them to each
other’s backs. Once i wrote on
the back of candy box paper,
i’m a boy with raging hormones
and for about an hour every
customer had a good laugh at
matt’s expense. but my favorite
was put on john’s back once. you
see, john used to tell everyone
the same joke; he’d say to you,
ask me if i’m a truck, and when
you’d ask him if he was a truck,
he’d look real perplexed and say,
no. like, why did you ask him
that? so anyway, we got a sign
on his back once that said ask
me if i’m a truck and when all
the customers did he got real
confused. it was hysterical.
