american ladle: week 2

Leopold is having a panic attack: his friend from Ghana hasn’t gotten here yet, so he doesn’t have anyone to help him in the snack bar who speaks English. I called around and found two people who might be able to help him, two women who worked at the snack bar in the past. One of them has a job only working on the weekends, and she is looking for other work, so it’s sounding hopeful.

And! One of the three competitors for the snack bar prize has dropped out. Jul, who was suppose to have his debut this week, resigned before he even began. We gave Leopold so much advice this weekend I’m sure he’d like to do the same thing.
