Meet the regs...(Steve)


Hey, wassup? nothin? alright then, let me introduce you to my man Steve. He don't want nothin 'cept cigarettes and cola. Steve has been coming here for years with the same dealio. A hand full of change that he always dumps on the counter and say's," do I have enough for a soda and cigarettes?" first off, let me tell you the standard protocol when it comes to change, you now coins n shit. I don't know if it's industry standard or not, but our company manual says,"fuck change. especially that dirty pan handled shit from peoples old ash trays n shit with bits of gum and whatever the fuck mixed in. options: tell em about coinstar, tell em to leave, or mase/taze em at your discretion." So Steve here gets alot of preferential treatment. Mainly cuz I like the guy. You see, he's a lil,"mentally disabled or developmentally challenged." Is that the right term? I don't know, shit. basically to me, he's a 10yr old up stairs.(He aint nothing like "Timay," though) but one that loves to smoke cigs and drink coke. From the lil info i have gathered here's his background, seizures as a kid, prolly led to the mental development issues, and lives with a "care provider." and I think he's gotta a part time janitor gig sometimes but he gets in trouble for cussing. and he listens to the Beatles alot. other then that his days mission is to get coke and some cigs. And once he's situated, he's out with the same speech everytime. "alright I love you guys. I'mma go home and do what i want, have what i want and wear what i want. i'm feelin good. i'm gonna sleep like a log tonight... okay, see you later. alright then bye." its the way he rolls. So even though he calls me johnny at times, I'm cool with Steve.

oh yeah, on a side note: There's gon be one less slanger up in this hood. Niko enlisted in the Army... yeah, you know an army of one and all that shit. I guess he wants to see some real action. I was like,"what, you think you better then us now? m16's and grenades? shit, that shits easy bitch. ask em up there in the army if they could get a head shot from 50 yrds with a BB gun. uh huh...Nah, I didn't say none of that shit. But it's hard to replace a good kid like Nik especially round hure. thankfully i stills got the Rawl.(El Machine) Anyways... wish the best for Niks dumbass. if you all see him out there, say wattup. peace...
