Newsflash: Double Doh! Jr. has left the building. Resignation letter to follow. Another victim of the company owner's frequent grumpfests. Guess she couldn't take both him and the reborn CostMart dictators. Damn. Couldn't even keep it together long enough to retrieve her jacket and purse. Very sad. Jan's already expecting to inherit her mission to CostMart. She was already scheduled for a meeting with them in a 2 weeks.
The mystery, yet again is how Double Doh! Sr. manages to not get his incompetent ass fired. He's a weird duck. Seriously. Disabled in some unvoiced way. Rumor has it he has Tourett's; or Schizophrenia or something alltogether different and that the owner (Stan) feels sorry for him and is keeping him on until he retires in 7 years or so. He's prone to either a) pass out at his desk or b) have wild gestulating tirades out in the parking lot when stressed - the only audience the invisible demons in his head and the mystified eyes of the marketing mgr peering through her window - which faces the parking lot. His behavior is never quite so alarming as to warrant a call to 911. You never know if it's caused by an actual physical/mental condition or it's just an elaborate coping method developed to help him endure the Wrath of Stan, which he earns himself quite frequently. My hypothesis? Maybe it was *caused* by Stan to begin with and now he feels so guilty for mentally unbalancing this poor man he refuses to fire.
