My POV

Well, my first screw up. I come here an hour to early. God knows how many people I'm gonna kill. Anyway, I have an hour to kill. What am I gonna do for an hour? Oh, I think I saw a coffe shop outside. I could have a coffe, read the paper. I have my Ipod right? I can't believe I'm going out these doors already. I was expecting something dramatic. Saving some guys life. Or no better yet. Like in ER losing a patient the first day and then delivering a baby...yeah and then having my coat over my shoulder and leaving as the sun sets. Cooooooool. Oh there's that janitor. He's working on the door. He seemed angry before, I should be friendly to him. As gramps always said 'the more friends you have, the further you'll go in life.'

"Hi." God he's scary.

"Hey you're the one who swore before right?"

"Yeah listen I wanted to apologize. You're right there are kids here and..." He's not listening to me. Change the subject. "Uh, so..."

'...'

Aaaaaaaaaaaawkard.

"Yeah?"

"So you working on that door huh?" Stupid stupid stupid.

"Is this some kind of trick question?" Proves my point. "Something is jamming the door. I think its a penny." What? Oh my god that nut before said something about this. I should have listened.

"Yeah they'll do that to you." Give him a tip. Like gramps always said 'the more tips you give, the more they'll give... to you'. "You know, if you bend a little piece of iron and put some oil where the penny is, you can just scoop it out." I can feel it in my bones that we're gonna be best friends.

"Are you telling me how to do my job? Oh right, a janitor is so stupid he doesn't even know how to do is own job. You know what? I..." Shit! Abort, abort!

"Yeah you're right I shouldn't have told you that. You know how to do your own job." Make a joke, quick. "hey and by the way, when it's out..." be very sarcastic, very sarcastic. "...could ya give it back to me? Heh heh." Aaah, as gramps always said 'make 'em laugh and they'll make you a path...to their friendship.'

"Are you saying you put this penny in here?" Oh crap.

"No I was just making a joke. Heh, you need to relax."

"Are you saying janitors dont have a sense of humor. Oohohoho you are going down my friend." Abort mission. Abort mission. As gramps always said 'if you see a man mad, leave him to his pad. "There's no use in running away. Your life is going to be a living hell starting nnnnnnnn..."

Great I can't hear him anymore.

"..."

Stupid gramps. He always was a little nuts.


"Ooooone...big...uuuum..."

"Come on we haven't got all day." Oh god, a man cant even decide which coffee to buy without some guy with a stopewatch behind him.

"Um...one big 'coffee lat...um?"

"Cafè lattè?" God I hate these italian nicknames for a simple coffee.

"Um yeah. 'Cafè lattè' or...whatever."

"Oooookaaaayso, on cafè lattè venti."

"Nononono, just a big coffee whatev..."

"Listen sir I'm doing my job so just shut up and have a seat. We'll call you when it's ready." What the f*** did he just say?

"What? What wait but..."

"Listen pal, have a seat or G T F O capisce?" Christ, the way hes talking he sounds like a mafioso. Okay calm down just... what the hell is that guy doing? He's acting like some kind of...ape? Is he retarted? Anyway just take out your paper, and pretend you are reading. Hey there's the old guy. Might as well speak to him. He's the first guy I met.

"Hello sir." Be polite.

"Well hello son. I happy to see some people still are polite." Score! "Donnie get this kid a muffin on my behalf." Holy shit a muffin. Double score. Blueberry. Triple score!

"Thank you sir. By the way, sir, you seem someone important with that lab coat on you..."

"Yes I was...that's right WAS...the chief of medecine." What? So he isn't now?

"What? So you aren't now?"

"Nope." So he doesn't have any authority in the hospital?

"So you don't have any authority in the hospital?"

"Nope." So why does he have that lab coat?

"So why do you have that lab coat?"

"'Cause I want people to think I have authority." Well he fooled me.

"Well you fooled me." Not that I won't have as much as respect for him just because he isn't chief of medecine. "Not that I won't have as much as respect for you just because you aren't chief of medecine." Did that come out right? "Did that come out right?" Why do I always think what I'm gonna say before I say it? "Why do I always think what aI'm gonna say before I say it?"

"I find this conversation boring. Now you won't mind if I leave right?" Aaaaaaand he's gone. Great. All alone again.

"Hey asshole! Catch!" What? The coffee boy? No! No, don't throw my coffee at me.
