Sleepless in the Stockroom

The new manager got rid of the sofa in the break room so people couldn’t nap on their hour-long lunch break. No one overslept or took the pee, but it was good to have the option on a tough day.

The Stoner guy started sleeping in other places, including in-between walls and in the warehouse. That’s when we started losing him and couldn’t find him as he’d go into a deeper sleep and was less likely to be disturbed.

We’d find him in between walls and shelves. It was a DIY store that had been something else years before, so there were random partition walls and oddly laid out shelving units everywhere, a real crap show of a store layout. He had quite a few places to hide in and nap.

He didn’t lose his job somehow. That place had a hard time hiring.
