Check the Gs by Ray Shasho

Everyone took turns cleaning the showcases and feather dusting the merchandise. If the store got busy after the last person cleaned the showcases, then that person would have to do them again. That meant the person was lucky. If you cleaned the cases and business all of a sudden got quiet, then someone else needed to clean the cases and fast. Business was kind of slow and not many big sales since Uncle Moey sold the African men all that stuff. Dad didn't look very happy. Actually he looked kind of mad. "Someone get the showcases and change the luck, let's go, look alive already… its pay day!"

Dad in his excitement would always ring the bell behind the register counter and shouted out as if he were Paul Revere on his historic midnight ride, but dad warned the G's of approaching bargains, "Buy now and save… Everything must be sold to the bare walls… There's plenty of room for everybody -don't push that lady." This was dad's every day shtick; the G's ate it up, although some of them looked a bit startled and confused, maybe much like the Patriots reaction to receiving the news that the British were coming.
