I keep it in my wallet.
As for my job, the video of Corbin firing me had been filmed by a customer in line. It got posted online. Corporate saw it.
Corbin was transferred to a store two hours away. They offered me my job back with a raise.
I said yes.
On my first day back, I put a small jar next to my register with a handwritten sign.
“For anyone who’s a little short today.”
It’s never empty.
THE END.
