    I wonder what were Rat’s previous three past lives.

    That’s it, Rat! If you’re going for the con, go hard. No point in playing for puny stakes.

    Rat may be related to Shirley MacLaine.

    There isn’t too much left of this one, Rat, if the boss gets to you!

    So, that’s what they meant when they said the Huns were upon Europe like the plague.

    So, it was Rat who keeps trying to invade Id, eh?

    But why do they want Rat back? I thought rat infestation was detrimental to a cafe.

    Lucky me, I’ve had 365 past lives and they were all born on a different day of the year.

    I’m sure Rat will use one of his previous lives work history to apply for Unemployment!!

    Sounds less painful than rat giving away goodies for customers’ birthdays.

    When I worked at A & P it was a closed shop so even part timers had to join the butcher’s union. One perk was that you got your birthday off with pay (for full timers only). It was in the contract, but I always thought it would have been better to get the day after your birthday off. Paid recovery time! ;-)

    gifts must be of cash value less than $50 and be socially benign in nature so as to maintain dignity…. of the giver…

    This place must be desperate for workers to put up with that.

    In honor of your birthday, we are sending you a pink slip. Not the kind you could wear.

    Just who do they have establishing their personnel policy in the first place? That’s who needs to get fired.

    Come on, Stephan! It’s “Rattila”, not “Ratilla”. Accent is on the first syllable.

    each rat month is roughly equivalent to 2.5 human years
