"The American superstore. One-stop shopping for everything you could ever want or need. Do you want to be thinner? Fatter? Happier? Sadder? Are you looking for friendship? or solitude? Or even love?"

Hearing the announcement from his office, Faustino sighed tiredly as he lifted his coffee mug to his lips and took a sip,”Seven a.m, only seven a.m,” he muttered, looking at the door as it was knocked,”Come in,” he called out

The door then opened to reveal Dina,”We have a meeting in five minutes, don’t miss it,” she stated and left before he could respond, leaving the man to sigh once more

Looking up at his clock, he felt his eyes begin to feel droopy,”Just five minutes,” he mumbled, leaning down and falling asleep quickly on his desk

..

"All right,campers, listen up. I've got an important announcement. This is your garden variety generic decongestant. ” Dina started, holding up a packet of decongestant as everyone except Faustino sat in the break room,”And this is crystal meth, okay? The tweakers use this to make this. So stop selling them this, so they can't make this," She told them, earning blank looks from most

"That guy told me he had a really bad cold." Cheyenne defended herself, her hands deep in the cheese ball bucket she held

"He was buying 35 boxes, Cheyenne. That should have been a red flag, okay? Use your noggin." Dina responded, tapping her head lightly with her finger as she sent a glare in Cheyenne's direction.

"Let's thank Dina for that helpful tip of the day. Thank you, Dina." Glenn said cheerfully, rocking back and forth on the balls of his feet.

"Am I the only one that thinks it's weird that she’s walking around with a bag of crystal meth?" Garret said, concerned laced in his voice as he looked around the break room, though he earned no reply

"Anyway, I am so proud to welcome two new angels to our Cloud 9 family. Why don't you introduce ourselves? Okay." Glenn said,gesturing for the two men to introduce themselves.

One of the guys stood up nervously with his hands in his pockets,."Hello, everyone. I am Jonah. And Iam, I am excited to be here. This is gonna be fun, so."

As he sat back down the other male stood with excitement,"My name is Mateo Fernando Aquino Liwanag, and I'm here to make something of myself. Spread my wings Whoop! See how far I can fly,”.

"Yeah, I, too, would like to see how far I can fly. So" Jonah said,standing up again just to say a few words.

"Saved it." Amy whispered under her breath, rolling her eyes lightly at Jonah's struggle to do something so simple

Suddenly, Faustino cruised into the break room with a mug of coffee,”Did I miss it?” his heavy spanish accented voice carried throughout the room, gaining everyone’s attention

“Yes, you missed the important announcement,” Dina told him as the man walked over to her

“My apologies, I fell asleep,” He defended poorly, taking a sip of his coffee as the woman rolled her eyes in response

“I’ll fill you in later,” Dina told him, and gave Glenn a gesture to continue

"Now, I used to end these meetings with some wisdom from the Good Book.but then someone reported me to corporate." Glenn said, glaring at Dina who stood to the side of him

"Heck yeah, I did!" She replied to his accusation, "Look, I'm a Christian too, but in these four walls, my bible is the employee code of conduct." She hit the employee code of conduct as she spoke, making it clear to Glenn where she stood on
