The Wee Mouse

Retail is very boring work. Shoppers are boring people. Unless you work at Junction 1 that is. It's weird place. It's like a mini town centre in the middle of nowhere and definitley attracts some proper weirdos. Like the woman who didn't want any old five pound note amongst her change. No, one was too old looking, one was too dirty, did they not have an english five pound note? she wanted an english one. Mammy Banjo was telling us a funny story last week about the man who came to install the new keyboard and mouse for the computer in her shop. After the man had been they looked at their new gear and realised that the mouse was actually the old one. So Mammy B's work colleague phoned up their Head Office to say that the new mouse they were supposed to be getting wasn't there. So the next day they had a phone call from the man who angrily shouted down the phone 'I haven't got your fucking mouse OK?' The pair of them were in stitches for it hadn't occurred to them that he would have the mouse. They thought maybe it hadn't been delivered or something. A few days later the man was back futering about with the computer. Mammy B's work colleague thought he was looking a bit sussed and says to him

'What have you got up your sleeve?'


'None of your fucking buisness' Says he.

So she went over and put her hand up his sleeve and pulled out the missing mouse that hadn't been installed. What a laugh they had at the expense of the guy who tried to steal the new mouse and who worried so much about getting caught out that he tried to sneak it back in with out anyone noticing. Only at Junction 1. Swear to God!
