Chapter eight........convincing the boss

  Ed was determined to get his boss to hire his little brother.....




Coffee Culure

 

Counter girl - " Hello, what can I  get for you?"

Ed- " Can I get just two regular coffees please."

Counter girl - " Coming right up."

 

 

Ed - " How much do I owe you."

Counter girl - " That will be 3.18 please."

Ed hands her his debit card -  "Do you except these?"

Counter girl - " Yes."

 

 

Ed takes the two coffees over to an open counter.

 

 

Ed(to himself)- " I really hope this goes well. I don't want my brother moving back to Miami."

 

 

Bruce arrives.

Ed - " Hey boss, I took the liberty to order your coffee. You take it black right!"

Bruce - " Thanks and yes I do take it black."

Ed - " Its freshly brewed too."

 

 

Bruce - " So what business did you need to discuss."

Ed - " Well, I asked you here to see if I can convince you to hire my brother.He really needs a job and he is a hard worker."

Bruce - " Oh I see, so that's why you wanted to meet with me!"

Ed - " Yes it is"

 

 

Ed - " I know that you told him there wasn't anything open but isn't there something that he could do!"

Bruce - " Ed i know he is your brother but I just don't know about hiring him."

Ed - " Why may i ask."

 

 

Bruce - " Well for starters I did some checking and your brother has a record."

Ed - " What do you mean a record!"

 

 

Bruce - " Your brother has been in trouble before. He was arrested for fighting and disorderly conduct. I don't want that to effect my business."

Ed - " He never mentioned that to me!"

Bruce - " I think he didn't want to disappoint you. I mean  not saying he is a bad guy but I can't afford to have him fighting with any of my customers."

Ed - "  I don't think he would. He has grown up allot since I last seen him and people make mistakes , just give the guy a chance to prove himself."

Bruce - "I don't know if  that would be a good idea."

 

 

Ed - "Look you gave me a chance didn't you! I had a gambling problem and you helped me get back onto my feet. "

Bruce - " I know."

Ed - " That's all I'm trying to do is help him get back on his feet and make his life better. He really is a good kid and I will take full responsibility for his actions."

Bruce - " Alright, I'll see what I can do but if  he doesnt work out then I have to let him go."

 Ed- " Deal!"

 

 

Ed and bruce continued their coversation discussing what Randy would possibly doing at the club.
