If you work with Jeff on Wednesday nights there is one extra task you must perform that's not part of the side work for the restaurant. By 6:15 (and no later!!) the diva must have a perfectly made cappuccino, heavy on the cinnamon, with a light dusting of "sugar in the raw" atop the pillowy foam. Now, for years Maria had worked with him and fulfilled her duties. To her credit, it was part of a deal she made with Jeff, who worked all day, to save her various crossword puzzles from the daily newspapers. When I took over Maria's Wednesday night shift I unwittingly inherited Jeff's prima donna demands for caffeine! To avoid his "Sling Blade" stare all night, like his bitch, every Wednesday before 6:15 his cappuccino awaits him!
