It was a normal February evening shift in Tony's Pizzeria, the aroma of fresh pizza was present in the air. It's always a great day tending to tables, being able to serve such friendly faces in town. Well, almost. Usually this place was a peaceful, quiet restaurant, our regulars consisting of young ladies, businesswomen, bookworms, and families that barely caused a fuss. But ever since last week, a new regular has started to grab a bite here. He was a businessman named Colin, and dear god was he annoying! Ever since this dumbass came along, he's done nothing but talk, talk, talk on that damn cellphone of his! It wouldn't be such a big deal if he wasn't so loud! All he's done is cause trouble for the poor customers, especially the bookworm guy!

As I deliver a meal to a family beside the entrance, I hear the doorbell and am greeted by a winter breeze. Speak of the devil, there he was, striding towards the heart-shaped podium. As much as I don't want to serve him at all, I don't have much choice, it'll cost this place valuable money if he leaves! I walk up to the podium grumbling to myself, then put on my best smile. Gotta keep up my patronage.

"Hi! Nice to see you again, Colin! How are you today?" I greet, taking a menu from the podium. "Hey there, buddy! Today's great, but I have a meeting in 10, can we make it quick?" With one flick of his wrist, he shoots me with a finger-gun and grins. I subtly roll my eyes as I lead Colin to an empty table. Thankfully the place wasn't packed, so I was able to seat him in a corner away from the others. After jotting down his usual, I rush to the kitchen counter and stick it on the spinny thingy.

It's gonna be a couple minutes for the order to be ready, so I take the time to check on the customers. And by that I mean just watch what that cheeky Cellphone Addict was up to, peeking at him from behind a pillar. It hasn't even been a minute yet and the dimwit was already yakking away on his phone! Shocker. Ugh, just looking at his rectangular face irritated me! I just didn't get how he could be such an inconvenience to others with his lack of awareness. It made him come across as a dick most of the time, he's even caused some customers to leave due to his motor mouth! How rude!

I can hear him talk all the way from here. He nods as he says, "Oh yeah, I'm waiting for my food right now! It's taking a bit long though, I wonder what's taking so long?"

Oh please, it's only been a minute! Why is he so impatient all the time? That was another thing I disliked so much about him. He was not only noisy, but was also a pain 'cuz he expected us to work at the speed of light! Not even Barb the Businesswoman was this hot-wired! It must be because he thinks he's better than all of us, being this big money hot shot from Big Corp and all. Ha, what a joke! He does pay a decent amount though, the only upside to serving the irritating Cellphone Addict.

I hear the dinner bell ring, and soon I've set Colin's food in front of him. "Thanks! Looks good as always! Almost as good as-!" Ring-a-ling-a-ling! "Oh, sorry! Gotta answer this!" He answers the phone again as he takes a bite. Classic Colin.
