You are John Bayliff, a Dishwasher at Mackleroy’s, a Brewpub in the Midwest.

Sunday's shift was a success, you did significantly better than what’d you’d usually do, there was a couple hiccups but things panned out, and you have a date with Jenna this weekend, but today is Wednesday, and you have another Shift on Friday, today’s a normal shift so no one will be helping you today. You step off the bus, it’s 4:50, the bus got stuck at a near perpetual red light, but hey, still on time.

You step through the back door and pass through the kitchen, Kim is alone frying up some wings, she turns to you and gives you an attentive nod, you nod back to her, “Morning.” You say, Kim gives another attentive nod, seems like when she’s cooking she doesn’t want to talk, “Is it just you tonight?” you ask. She pauses for a moment, then turns to you.

“Yes, aside from busy days, there’s usually one cook. It’s Wing Wednesday by the by, so expect a lot of baskets.” Kim states. “I won’t be able to help you so don’t fuck up.”

>I wouldn’t dream of it
>Please, me? Fuck up?
>>
>>43763265
Drop pants and take an enormous shit in the fryer.
>>
>>43763265

>I wouldn’t dream of it
>>
An invasive thought enters your mind but quickly shake it off. “I wouldn’t dream of it!” You exclaim. “I’ll try to stay out of you way, is there a way you’d like me to stack the plates? You ask, silently reasoning her height would make the high plates hard to reach.

“... I’d like them on the counter” Kim pauses. “I can’t really reach plates and bowls otherwise.” almost seems hard for her to admit she’s short.

“Alright sounds good, see you in a couple minutes.” You say, Kim nods and goes back to her cooking, sliding a basket of wings into the window.

“MARGO!” Kim shouts out, you walk past Margo.

“Sup” Margo says to you.

“Hey” You respond, she seems familiar now that you think about it, but can’t remember from where you know her, oh well. You step into the break room, Aside from the usual people you see in the room, this time it’s Jesse, eating some tacos.

“Sup man, how ya doing?” Jesse asks slightly muffled by the tacos in his mouth.

>Doing good sir
>It’s another day man.

“It’s another day man.” You say as a yawn escapes your lungs. “You?”

“Same shit, different day.” Jesse grunted out. “good to have you in bro.”

“Thanks, so, what’s it like on Wednesdays?” You ask, not wanting to be in blind territory

“A little busy but mainly baskets so a bit easier than normal, I don’t do dishes often so I can’t say for sure. Sorry man.” Jesse says, a mexican accent becoming more prevalent.

>No worries
>Well at least i know about the baskets
>>

“No worries man, I’ll find out tonight, speaking which I gotta clock in, I’ll talk to ya later man.” You say.

“Aight, good luck, I’m just gonna finish lunch and head back to it myself.” Jesse replies, you give him a nod and exit the room, you clock yourself in, and stand at the pit...

You organize a rack if dishes and spray with absolute precision, you slide the rack in and slide the doors down, you organize another rack and wait a bit for the washer to finish, there is a lul of silence aside from your music. You take a look at Kim and decide to try to talk with her a little bit, she’s quiet and can get violent at times but that’s about it. “So... How long have you been working here?” You ask to break the ice.

“...” Kim doesn’t respond at first but then turns to you while she waits for the fryers. “about 2 months, same as Wally.” She answered resolutely.

“Alright.” You say, ‘wait a minute’ a thought vocalizes itself. “What happened to the other cooks? There’s no way it was just Nick doing everything back here by himself.” Kim grew a bit sullen.

“... They walked out.” Kim said with an embittered tone.

‘Ouch.’ You think to yourself, but remember you’re chatting with Kim and get back to the conversation. “So you guys came in just in time?” You ask. Kim pulls up a basket and tosses some wings into a basket and drizzling bourbon sauce on top of them.

“We joined a week after they left, it was a couple people actually, not just the cooks.” Kim grimaces as she flips a couple ribeyes and scoops out some garlic mashed potatoes.

“I see...” You pause. “Any particular reason?” blasting away at some plates.

“Nick said some said ‘we’re better than this’, and walked out,others couldn’t handle the stress, it was a Friday night shift, Nick barely made it apparently.”

“That’s pretty awful, are you two friends with Nick?” You ask.

“Not until we met him, Wally and I are roommates who were looking for new work from our call center jobs, there was a job posting for Mackleroy’s as cooks, we took the opportunity to change careers. Nick grew on us pretty fast, though he sometimes is an asshole... heh.” Kim gives a soft smile. “We usually go out to the bars after closing shifts as well, it’s nice to have a friend other than Wally.”

“You don’t have other friends?”

“Well I have a couple online friends who I play games with, but there’s not much chance I’ll meet them in real life.”

“I see, as long as you’re enjoying yourselves, does it matter whether it’s real life or not?” you say as a question but with a matter of fact tone. Kim’s smile grows a bit wider.

“Heh, I suppose so, how about you? Got any friends?” Kim asks.

>Well, there’s my boy Jamie

“Well, there’s my boy Jamie.” You say, Kim raises an eyebrow.

“Your... boy?” Kim says questioningly.

“Yeah, probably one of my best friends, I’ve known him since 2nd grade, he’s usually the one who gives me rides home after work.”

“I take it he’s out and about by the time you call?”

“Yeah, he’s more of a night owl than I am haha.” You chuckle, leaving out a key detail about Jamie. “We usually chill at his place after I’m done with work then he drops me off at home.”

“Ah, yeah Wally and I just carpool, saves money overall.”

“That’s a good way to think of things, I don’t have a vehicle yet so I’m riding the bus.” You say, Kim turns to you with a quizzical look.

“Why don’t you carpool with Wally and I? At least one of us will be working when you are.”

“That sounds great actually, sure.” You say with a smile.

“A couple rules though. Number one, no food, drinks are fine.” Kim says with a sullen look. “There was an incident with Chinese food.”

“No food, got it.” You say assuringly.

“Number two, no mentioning my chair settings.” Kim says then gives you a glare.

“Sounds good, I’ll be respectful.” You say with a smile slightly scared of Kim.

“Number three...” Kim pauses. “No groping in the car.”

“That sounds reasonab- Wait! What!?” You said calmy until you realized just what Kim was saying.

“Wally used to get friendly in the car, was very distracting so I had to put a ban on it.” Kim said with a sigh.

>No groping, got it (Ignore Wally and Kim being a possible thing)

You spray a bit of the gravy off a pan before getting back to the question itching at the back of your head, you turn to Kim. "Are you two more than roommates?" Kims face grows a bit flush, your expression goes from curiosity to a cheeky smile, hers grows into a more angry and flustered one.

"W-we just do things!" She hides her face a little bit, for someone who was willing to admit to her roommate groping her in the car, she's gotten more embarrassed at a possible relationship. "T-Theres nothing between us!"

All DP and KP finished! Any dishes at this point are just gravy.

"Don't worry." you say to Kim, her face exhibits a confused look. "I'm not judging you two, I was just curious." Kim's looks a mix of relieved and melancholy.

"Thank you, a couple people we know joke about us being a couple when that isn't our style." Kim admits. "We're good friends but I don't think either of us want more than that at the moment."

"I see, no worries, you two have your stuff to deal with, it doesn't need a label anyways!" you exclaim, Spraying a plate that passed through a minute ago.

"Yeah, so how do you feel about open...stuff?" Kim murmurs the last bit, you feel like she's asking if you're judging her despite a moment ago saying that you won't be judging the two of them.

"I'm fine with it. You say, relieving Kim a bit strangely. "I'm more monogamous myself, but more power to ya." you say with a smile that almost rivals Amy's.

"Glad to hear it." Kim says a bit quieter, flipping some burgers. "It's about an hour to close, you can probably work on cleaning."

"Yeah I'll get to work on it soon." You respond, tending to a rack here and there, you take a look in the back of the kitchen and it isn't too bad a sweep and mop will do it good.

You make some quick sweeps and lightly scrub tables. Things look alright but will need a mop, You fill a bucket and wash out the back of the house to the beginning of your station, it all looks pretty clean but admittedly could be better, you take a look at the clock and its near closing time about 10 minutes. You think about Saturday and where to take Jenna, then you realize, 'I don't know where I'm going to take her!' you think to yourself, almost out loud. 'Wait, I'll ask Kim!'

"Say Kim." You say aloud from the Front of House.

"Hmmm?" Kim respond turning to you.

"If you had to pick, where would you take someone on a second date?"

"Well, let me think..." Kim ponders for a moment, she looks like she's about to say something but is interuptted by Margo bursting into the back of house. She's frightened and worried about your reactions

"Guys a 12 top came in! I'm so sorry!"

"Goddamnit!" Kim kicks the cooler, "Frickin' Assholes."

"Well, back to the meat grinder" You say aloud disgruntled-like, you stand at the pit begin to work on some dishes and baskets you were gonna leave over night. Kim doesn't look very enthused over the situation. A thought creeps into your head, 'wait didn't Jenna and I agree to go someplace already? Where were we going?' You think to yourself, Kim is frantically working the kitchen trying to get everything in order.

"John!" Kim shouts to you.

"Yes?" You slide a rack in and the washer comes alive.

"Would you be able to make a pepperoni pizza? All of the stuff is in the cooler and the crust is in the freezer. You use to cook Headstone Pizzas at home when you were younger, this is just adding a couple extra steps before it.

"Sure thing, Kim." You say as you head to the back, you walk inter the freezer and grab the crust and grab the tub full of ingredients and as best you can you make a pepperoni pizza that looks pretty darn good. just gotta figure out the time. "Ey Kim!"

"Yeah!?" Kim shouts back.

"How long for the pizza?" You shout to the front

"12 minutes!" Kim shouts back.

"Thank you!" You say as you plot in the timer on the oven, you head into the front and notice Margo looking a bit frightened, possibly by you and Kim's yelling but proceeds to get back to her job grabbing food for the late night patrons. 'Oh right, gun range.' the thought invaded your head.

You spray away at the dishes that are somewhat piling up, sorting cups into their own spot, you eel somewhat thirsty. "Ey Kim you want something to drink?"

"Water please." She responds, all of her tickets are done, and it's officially past closing time.

"You got it" you respond, you head to the soda fountain and pour yourself a Spritz and Kim a cup of water, Jesse passes by but back pedals to meet with you.

"Ey Man, You and Kim are doing good for tonight, You two get a meal on me."

"Thanks man, that's pretty awesome." You respond, Jesse waves it off.

"I like to reward my people for good work, though Kim might not want to cook anything anymore, talk with her about it and when you guys are done you can eat." He says walking to the back towards the office.

"Will do!" You shout back. You head back to the back and place Kim's cup of water on the table. "Jesse said we can have food on him, but don't know whether you want to cook or not." Kim sighs a bit but yields.

"I can make a basket of wings for us, sound good?" She says.

"I'd like buffalo please." You say.

"Good choice, They'll be ready when you're done." Kim says

"Thank you, I'll be done as fast as possible." You pound out the last couple of the dishes, and with a satisfied sigh, you're done. Kim is finished with the basket and is drizzling the buffalo sauce over the wings, they look incredibly enticing. She puts the wings in a to go box and hands them to you.

"Here you go."

"Thank ya."

"Not that I don't mind talking with you, but lets do that on the ride to your place." Kim says flatly lightly punching your arm. "You did very good tonight."

"Again Thank ya." You say. You turn to the office. "YO Jesse! Can we clock out?" You shout back.

"Yeah man it's cool you guys have a good one." Jesse shouts back.

"You too." You and Kim say in unison, you both let out a chuckle.

"Well, lets clock out and head out." She says

"Lets." you reply, the two of you clock out in unison and head out the door, Kim appears to own a 1989 Lincoln Continental.

"Well, Hop in. " Kim orders as she pulls herself into the car.

"Don't mind if I do." You say as you enter the car, the displays on the drivers side are digital the seats are possibly leather... And Kim's seat is REALLY Up close and high. She puts the keys into the ignition and pulls out of the parking space.

"Well here we go." Kims says as you both drive out of the lot.
