Ugh. Well—this Cafe isn't off to a great start, huh? I suppose I should officially announce the departure of Big Guy. I'm not sure where he's going, but I've got a pretty good feeling he won't be back. And to be clear, I didn't choose the Manager over him. Big Guy left of his own accord. I think if it was up to me, I would've picked Big Guy over the Manager. Why? Because he understood what we were trying to do. No offense, Manager, but seriously, get it together.
So… we're down to just the three of us now. I suppose our next side order should be finding a few new employees or whatever. Of course, Umbra and the Dark still take precedence over staffing concerns. Probably also need to put together some kind of staff training or whatever, because CLEARLY, we're not all on the same page. And I want us to be on the same page. I really do. Look—I get it. Trust me, I get it. This Cafe and Diner stuff is kinda… silly at best. Especially having spent so many years at the Company. But… isn't that what makes this so much better? We aren't just another stuffy coffee shop in the Coffee Trade; we're a generic combination cafe and diner. And that kinda rocks.
Manager, consider yourself on probation. I'll give you a few months to turn things around. I know there's a lot of good in you. We all do. Even Big Guy knew. And I think that's what frustrates him so much. But y'know, he was once a weird, creepy cult kid who didn't have a great grasp on self-control either. He said he sees a lot of the King Draped in Yellow Flames in you. It's funny because I see a lot of the Big Guy in you.
