Office drama

Yesterday, a salesman from supplier A and the boss of supplier B came to our shop. The salesman came to deliver products while the boss came to collect broken products.

Both suppliers sold similar things.

Two people that were not supposed to meet (in my shop) have met.

The salesman was like a submachine gun, firing sentence after sentence and cracking 3 to 4 jokes every minute. I had problems catching what he said. And what's worse is that he spoke in Cantonese.

The boss, however, was like those cool bishonen characters. He said at most 3 sentences every 5 minutes and normally just 1. However, each sentence was enough to shoot down the salesman's 6-7 sentences.

I totally do not know what they were saying since the whole conversation was in Cantonese, but I did enjoy watching them argue and shoot each other down. Even if I didn't understand what they said, watching facial expressions was information enough.

I do so love it when the salesman shuts up for 10 seconds after every sentence by the boss.

The bad thing was, they dragged our closing time to 7.30pm because of their squabbling.
