I was soaked, freezing and not in any mood for derogatory, untrue comments from my cunt of a boss; outside, the rain pelted down in a savage fury. Ignoring the customary curt remark, I checked my watch. 9.01 am, and despite running through the decrepit town centre shopping area, avoiding the many food bags of refuse crawling with rats, I had almost made it, and what did that fucker mean... '*again*'? ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/242Nf6JPjYkESjjfpE3PwnobaLz8RAHUQZ6ym9GJeyJFJvutFyzwKwForxagkiRwhMafL.png) ...***'don't get it into you head that a typical Kwiksave looked like this. Most were rejected buildings on the verge of collapse, and rented on the cheap'***... - [Source](https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/history/gallery/lost-british-aldi-brought-discount-8707688) I could not ever remember a time before this festering day that I had been late. Most days, I had to huddle under the rudimentary cover of the battered old ex-cinema building that Kwiksave had rented and used to sell their cheap boxed food, waiting for my sneering boss to arrive. "Coffee now boy, and don't make it too strong like you nearly always do. Then... and only then you can clock in". Mort slammed the office door, and apart from a few dithering old ladies pottering through the front door for the early morning shopping ritual, I was alone. "One minute late and he wants his fucking coffee without paying me", I bemoaned inwardly. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/246bFasyme3w8R2QMo9DB7Zcst5oyV2BqTPT4QN9Jbk97pstSbqYEir1hDamyiuEPYG6V.png) ...***'in 1981, dog food flavours were a little outlandish compared to today's boring stale flavours. I don't know about Tripe & Gizzard though, my memory could be a tad off'...*** - [Source](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pedigree-Dog-Tins-400gm-24/dp/B005K7MXJO) "Excuse me, love, where's the dog food, my Rover only likes the Heart with Jelly flavour., he's ever so fussy…" My legs moved like lightning up the stairs. This was not happening, and I would not be subject to the whims and demands of an 85-year-old geriatric without pay, and that was as well as being a free coffee maker. ...*'for fucks sake, could this day get any worse?'*... Mort was on to me, I knew. My sustained attempt at caffeine poisoning over time was not working, and witnessing the frequent spitting and cursing from inside the one-way glass-encrusted office after delivering the 'goods', that strategy would need to be modified. Descending from the Kwiksave derelict canteen, I miserably made my way to the office only to see Mort struggling with a 24-pack of Pedigree Chum dog food while visibly arguing with a customer. The same old dear must have rapped on the office door and forced Mort to do some work. I tried to suppress a grin and hoped the old, withering dear might suffer from amnesia. Moments later, a sweating, clearly unhappy Mort swept past me, pulled the coffee out of my hand with unnecessary force, which spilt, resulting in a large brown stain on his bright red manager's uniform. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/23uQrpVGL6vAM8MZHkuaCE5evgZ3qcvB3fgVtwk9smJWhS8kpQ9UVLdgJsFCFify9gU4a.png) [Source](https://www.needpix.com/photo/1450968/mad-man-face-closeup-big-eyes-angry-violent-temper) "**YOU FUCKING CUNT**…." Mort's scream trailed off which was abruptly replaced with a nauseating smile that could curdle the freshest of cream. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/245TUtepRaMTHXWYhieetVfuWV55T2zs9PwutiRC9Pe4iLyYS7ZntgKkYdMHfZEoHX976.png) - [Source](https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/376050637608335942/) I looked around, surprised to see Elton Welsby, the combustible Area Manager, walking through the front door of the store wearing a shocked-looking expression. "He's a nasty man, that one. Told me to piss off and make do with the Tripe and Gizzard flavoured dog food just because he's too bloody lazy to get what my Rover likes best…", an agitated familiar voice croaked to my left. The aged, wizened old lady looked up at me, squinting.... "Do I know you, son?" she said in a rasping croaky voice. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/23wMYTAhgG42iwdj9LAmRHCHU6hK9ewPXayyFvf2wjj1vjo5iT7VEar1ne2deASBrnh7e.png) ...***'the vast majority of Kwiksave customers were old ladies with an average age of 82 years old and they all smoked.'...*** - [Source](https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/old-lady-smoking-cigarette?page=2) "Er.. no, you are probably mistaking me for him", I retorted, which gained me a searing scowl from Mort, who, in turn, remembered at the last moment that Elton was watching the whole scene unfold and switched his cursing visage hastily. "In the office, Mr Mortenson, I do believe we have some important things to discuss", said Elton in his matter-of-fact manner. I knew better, and that an eruption was bubbling. I moved away, glad to be out of danger from both Mort and Elton. Neither could ever be drinking pals, and the back shop was in sight, a most welcome sanctuary. The office door slammed once again, Mort giving me a glare that could freeze my bones. "**PISSING OFF OUR CUSTOMERS... WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU..…**" I closed the backshop door with a sliding thud, and Elton's screaming subsided and then was muted. Mort would be back as soon as the Area Manager left, and I would be subject to his undeserved wrath once again. ![Break.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/iPbQQNzA-Break.png) Mort, the Shit Manager is a Serial Shitposting Fiction Story inspired by Torundel the Shitposter by @katharsisdrill, Ren du Lot, the Shit Lawyer by @vcelier and Nordlute, the Shit Sysadmin by @steevc. ![RedLine.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/BqIuXs6C-RedLine.png) My Urban Exploration Tales can be found directly on the internet via my Website '[Tales of the Urban Explorer](https://talesoftheurbanexplorer.co.uk/)'. ![CurieCurator.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/f5zec6UG-CurieCurator.jpg) ![RedLine.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/slobberchops/BqIuXs6C-RedLine.png)
