Her Five Thousand Dollar Payback

Summary

Working on the retail floor of a luxury flagship, you see it all. I once had a pregnant client suffer a total psychological breakdown, tearing through our displays like a hurricane.

To bring her back to earth and get her safely out the door, I ran to the bodega next door, using my own money to buy her a hot carton of milk. It worked.

My store director, however, pulled a still frame from the security footage and dropped it into the district-wide Slack channel.
