An Enchanted Evening

*Dedicated to everyone who is taking this journey with me. May there be many more adventures.

A job you had for one hour?  Tony: That was the worst hour of my life too. All these little girls giggling in the corners, not doing any work. The manager, another little girl moving faster every time one of those little girls disappeared into the break room. There was a rush? Is that what they're called? That little manager started to yellin' at me. I told her “Look
