…when you visit DQ to purchase gift cards for wonderful neighbors who saved you money by taking care of your dogs…
…and a DQ employee looks at you quizzically, saying “Do you remember me?”
And you look back at him, racking your brain trying to remember if maybe you subbed for him last year…
And he says, “I used to work at the BP, and you used to come in and buy Mt. Dew every morning. You worked at the school.”
And, as you look at the little guy who’s wearing the DQ paper hat that’s part of the uniform, you hang your head in shame and admit that, “Yes, I remember you.”
But then you brighten as you say, “But that’s all over now. It’s been four weeks since my last soda.”
And then you slink out of the store, gift cards in hand, eager to run away from the conscience that has disguised as a five foot DQ employee.
