“Hey, Stanley!”
“Yes sir!”
“You’ll be doubling as a waiter tonight. So once you’re done cleaning, get dressed in a suit and get ready to serve the guests.”
“Uhm, sir. I’m supposed to close by 7pm, that’s the end of work hours for me, sir”.
“Well, not today! You’ll probably be here till tomorrow morning. One of the waiters fell ill so you’ll have to take his place”.
“Sir, does this mean I’ll be paid his wage instead, since he won’t be coming?”
The director burst into laughter.
“Dream on, Stan. You’re not getting paid a dime for the extra hours you’ll be working for. If you’re not happy with that, feel free to quit, there are millions of janitors happy to replace you and in case you don’t know, these people are happy to be paid half your salary for more work”.
“Half of $2 per hour?” I asked, surprised. Who in the world would want to be paid a dollar per hour? I only took this job because I was dying of hunger.
“Sir, could I get just a tiny little bit of money from you? You didn’t tell me about the event earlier so I didn’t bring anything decent to wear, I have to go back home, pick something and come back”.
He rolled his eyes and gave me my exact payment for the day, nothing for the transport to go home and return again on the same day.
