A former employee recently came to fill out an application because he wanted to be rehired. He had a question about his rehire-eligibility so I went to answer his question. When I arrived, he was sitting down in the lobby, with a clipboard in hand, filling out the application. Shortly after our conversation began, I looked down at a soda can on the floor between his feet and noticed that a large portion of the top had been removed. I asked him if he was using it as a spitter for chewing tobacco. He smiled and shook his head, yes. ARE YOU SERIOUS??
