Now that I've reread that story and got some sleep, I still feel that several people need to pull that stick out of their arse. It's a story from work, alright? As with probably anywhere which has people coming together in the same area to execute a common set of tasks (office, restaurant, construction site, 7/11 store, etc.) there are going to be people with certain personalities.

I work at a local restaurant and we have one regular ("Al", a man in his 60's) who seems to stalk a waitress there known for being mouthy at times ("Carol") as well as having the ability to be nearing 50 and looking in her late 30's and having a passion for motorcycle-riding bad boys. A busser there is known for sleeping around with the kitchen staff and others ("Brooke") as well as being somewhat of a druggie. Carol has been rather explicit with people regardless of whether they are customers when they irritate her or interrupt her, as well as spouting phrases such as "Shit the bed, Fred." when under duress or when something retarded happens. Wild Boar is a customer who was remarkably messy and lacked personal grooming abilities, and was a cheapass.

I think that most of you can relate to this when you think of some of your coworkers, or even people on this forum. Imagine Nik in place of Al, Mosh in place of Carol, the boar as one of the more inconsiderate members of the forum, and Brooke as someone who clearly sleeps around. Last two are going unnamed for obvious reasons, but at least have a bit of creative perception here.
