Uh oh, the Bagel!

This morning my manager called, "Estella, the recession...it's really starting to hit us hard and we're having to cut back." My heart jumped into my throat, because I've been having nightmares all week about this phone call. "We have to keep our doors open, so you're going to have to take a pay cut." I calmed down slightly, realizing I wasn't been fired. I did take a fifty cent pay cut, but at least I still have my job.
