You are closed sucka


Today I thought I was going to have a nice and easy day. It started off with a meeting in the morning and then I could coast through the rest of the afternoon. Wrong. I get to the office and answer the messages and emails and then it turned to shit from there. I get a message that a gas station in a district that the inspector is off in Vegas has a bad problem. MICE eating everything. So at 2pm I get in the van and head on over and as I walk in you can smell the mouse piss in the air right inside the door. I get the papers and tell the workers that they are closed. The guy behind the glass makes a call and hands the phone to me. I tell the owner that I just closed your store and that the workers need to toss all damaged food as I'm standing there and clean and sanitize everything. The owner gets there in a few minutes and from where he came from that fast still has me amazed. He tried talking me out of closing him for like 2o minutes and I just kept telling him this place is in real bad shape and he needs to get cleaning and tossing the damaged food or he may never open. As I was watching them dispose of the half eatin bags of chips I move a bunch of bags of maxi pads by my feet and a mouse runs over the top of my shoe. I do a quick move and stomp on it, 1 down. I have a worker move the rest of the maxi pad packages and I stomp on 4 more and the owner and worker get a couple more. I look at the owner and now you can see it is clicking that his place is filthy and has a problem and this is why I'm there. So after watching the food get tossed I have the owner start cleaning and then I leave to give the police a copy so they can watch the store over night to make sure that it stays closed while I'm not working. $500.00 ticket if they operate after I close them so I hope that they clean and not try to sell after I left. So by the end I had to work 2.5 hours overtime dealing with this dump. Time to go lift weights. Later..
