TEXT CONVERSATION
OVER THE COURSE OF MONDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 27
Craig
Hey, sorry to bother you when you’re off saving the world or whatever, but the candidate you hired for the front desk, Graciela? She came in for her first shift. Um, didn’t you say she was super enthusiastic and had a lot of energy?
Greg
Yes?
Craig
On a different topic, your Uncle Edgar showed up here looking for you. I told him you were off for the day, and he said he’d wait for you at your apartment.
Greg
Thanks. For once I actually need to talk to him
Craig
And back to Graciela, I’m not seeing any energy or enthusiasm
Greg
Well, crap
Craig
She barely smiles, and Marie keeps giving me these wide-eyed stares when I stop by to see how her training is going
Greg
That’s so strange – she interviewed like our dream job candidate
Craig
Oh, and she said no one told her she’d have to mop up dog pee in the lobby
Greg
Not so. Kellie was mopping up after a dog when I took Graciela on a tour. I told her that would be her responsibility, and she said no problem
Craig
OMG I’m watching the front desk on the security camera. Marie’s helping a client and Graciela has her head on her fist with her eyes closed. Hang on, sending a pic before I go intervene

Greg
Wait a minute. That’s not the person I interviewed! They look similar, but that is NOT who I met on Friday
Greg
Look at the camera footage. It was Friday at 9:30am.
Craig
You were right. She wasn’t the one who interviewed. I confronted her, and she said her sister interviews for her because she makes a better first impression. What the actual fuck. Like we weren’t going to notice? I escorted her out and I’m putting the job ad up again. [crying emoji]
