I think I pulled a muscle in my neck this morning.
Accounting (AKA the lady who knows how stuff works) is off today. So is my boss.
Someone who was away on business last week is still away, and will likely be away for another few days, because his passport got stolen.
A guy walked in this afternoon, asked for “the Boss” and gave evasive answers until I gave in and called out my boss’s son (because for all I knew this guy *was* one of their regular customers) whereupon the guy hands him a line about his car having run out of gas and can he have some cash, he’ll pay it back, honest. The boss’s son, being a good guy, gave him a fiver, but I felt awful for subjecting him to panhandling because I can’t interrogate people (and something tells me that if a similar situation arose and I *did* act suspicious, *that* guy would turn out to be our biggest customer and be angry at me for being rude.)
