The Man Downstairs

It's been a weird year in Cube City, especially downstairs in the deli. When the deli first opened, a lot of cube dwellers were very excited because it was the only place to get food without leaving the building.

But time passed, and the novelty wore off. I don't know if others notice the strangeness, but there are some weird men running the deli. The first man seemed very happy and thankful for everyone's business in the beginning...until the novelty wore off and he started openly complaining about how bad business was. Time passed, and apparently he did too.

Now there's a new man running the deli downstairs, and he's way too happy and excited about being there. What's super-weird is that he wears a shirt that advertises the name of one cafe, but the receipt lists the name of a completely different cafe, and neither the shirt nor the receipt match the name of the sign on the deli door. I just wonder how many men it takes to run a deli? I don't know, but I wouldn't ask the man downstairs.
