“That’s the fourth one this week, Sanchez; I’m going to have to write you up.”
“The fourth what? What are you talking about, you’re not in charge!”
“I’m wearing the hat.”
Boss, it read on the cap.
“You just found that hat, dickhead!”
“Okay, mister, that’s number five!”
If his arms weren’t so tired he’d slug him. If the bricks weren’t so costly he’d throw one. Instead, he stood there and accepted the reprimand.
There are very few rewards being a laborer in a high-tech world, so he let his brother boss him around. After all, he did have the hat.
Lots of bosses are A$$#*%&$. If you get yourself a hat you can become an A$$#*%& too!
Love the simplicity of the story. Cleverly done.
