    I bet TJ’s awesome cooking will be what doubles Ann’s sales. Also, TJ looks both goofy and adorable in his Weenie-World uniform.

    I have doubts about a romance. TJ is too good a friend to Brad. Like how he’s never really hit on Toni. He’s kidded about it, and flirted in a way everyone knew he wasn’t serious. But he’s never REALLY flirted or tried to go out with Toni. So along the same lines, I don’t think he’d risk infuriating Brad by hooking up with Eiffel. He’s a schemer, but like someone else said in a past discussion, he has only the best intentions when it comes to Brad.

Anyway, if Ann signs that I bet TJ is going to twist it and send it to the Uppers, so it will look like Ann herself stated all of that, INCLUDING the fact that she would raise sales. The uppers will be pissed that she didnt deliver.

    With his charm, TJ might actually succeed at doubling sales. My late father-in-law was a super salesmen. After retirement he worked part time at a shoe store and outsold the fulltimers. A woman would bring in a dress looking for shoes to match and would walk out with three pairs of shoes, a belt and new handbag to match. If TJ can do the “add on” sales such as fancy drinks or desserts, he might really increase sales dramatically. Ya just never know.

    Fact is, why’s Ann so awful? She’s like a spoiled child, who’s never known anyone whom she couldn’t manipulate. If she met someone she couldn’t cow, she might stop being such a _____. She’s not exactly glowering at TJ in the last panel.

    I’m not sure she has the power of signature for the company. Not beyond employment papers. And if he is actually planning to increase sales, legally, that can only make Ann look better. Hiring a bunch of sub-human part-time teenagers certainly isn’t going to push you up the corporate ladder.

    Ann has always picked on victims she perceives as vulnerable before. (Brad was desperate for a job, Bernice was a naive teenager at her first job, Zane was handicapped.) TJ took the job only to “get” her, he is not only a manipulator, but has few weaknesses she can exploit….there are many ways to double sales, not profits. Why not issue $.05 coupons to all the homeless? Plus free drinks??

    This is definitely going to be fun.:Sure, manipulators pair up with the weak, and the relationship is one of dominator/subordinate, cat and mouse. But they also, from time to time, pair up with each other in a match of wits. They each thrive on this.:Ann definitely likes what she sees. And I think, far from messing with her mind a bit and leaving, TJ is going to be around Ann for the long haul.:As Humphrey Bogart once said (in Casablanca), “I think this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship”.

    TJ totally can afford to “push it”. We already know he doesn’t need the money, and that allows the freedom to say “I won’t do such and such”. Unlike people who DO need that money, and bow and scrape and overall do what they’re told to keep their job

    Yeah, early this morning I logged on and said, “Buy one – get one FREE” with the idea you stated about sales not profits. Not being in sales, I don’t fully understand why this works, but a lot of places do it, so I assume this bargain is a doorbuster to get people in the store so they will buy more pricey items and the sales AND profits go up. I’d find it interesting to hear from somebody “in the know” as to how that works. If it works, I’d be surprised that the manager is not already selling 2-fers.

    To those who insist on injecting reality into a comic strip (legal this, corporate that) it doesn’t work. Remember that comic strip, For Better or Worse ( I think it was. ) The old dog saved the kid from the water, then crawled up on dry land and died. Only a comic strip, you say, but it bothered me, and to this day, I never read it. I want to see Gunther caught with his pants down, or Tiffany endlessly putting on makeup and looking in the mirror. I don’t want to see Puddles develop kidney failure, waste away, and then be euthanized.

    I suspect TJ will get burned for his scheme; Ms. Eiffel has played the game too long to be outfoxed. But, if his plan is simply to give her back some of her own manipulation, that could very well work.
