    Fired? For WHAT? What did he do?

    Welcome to the club, Slim. In fact you can be president of the club!

    Axe-grinder, he basically was incompetent at both cooking (he was hired because the “competent” cook was ill) and dishwashing (well, Suds is back for now, so Slim’s not needed until Suds blacks-out from drink) and also Corky’s deal of not deducting Slim’s meals was too costly (for Corky).

    Plus, he failed to show up for work (as Suds oft does when drunk–only Slim isn’t drunk), so…

    What a relief! Now he can crawl back under the car and get some rest.

    Oh that’s not fair! He did his best. It’s not his fault he didn’t know how to cook well and that waitress kept giving him the orders in some kind of code. Corky should cut him some slack!

    See the way he’s running to work? He had just bloomed as a responsible worker, and now he’s nipped! Luckily he’ll qualify for unemployment.

    Why did Slim get fired? He showed up for work more than Corky did. Another case of what’s good for the boss isn’t allowed for the employee.
