Please, just help me make it through the day. Oh, you want to know what I look like? I guess it helps to put a face. Okay well, first, I'm an eighteen-year-old white latina. I'm about...
My name is Ted. I own a small clothing-store. I’m 40. Business is good. There’s only one problem. Shoplifters. Of course they cost me money, but that’s not the big problem. They make me mad.

I planned to do some of the necessary shopping, yes, but I also had another plan I'd been aching...
Thanks to the great Florida tax cuts, my wife was out of a job with the school system and desperate in looking for a new job. She had been considering her options and applied for a few service jobs... nothing that would have sex involved, but things like sexy maid service. These companies are flash in the pans and gone faster than she can get paid! Although...

The first customer into my shop that cool November morning was bundled from head to toe and looked like a schoolteacher. Clutched firmly to her chest was a paper sack as she made her way to the cashier's station. There was something in her eyes that said she didn't come here often, if at all.
