I read another from this author a while ago.  I was intrigued enough to try another when I saw it come up in a search and it was offered as a freebie.This one is like the other in that it would be a great episode of "Twilight Zone" - or similar.I found the premise of the odd part timers quite believable due to the fact that Joe did the hiring of all.  He is a hapless, helpless fellow set forth with an arduous task:  finding a good part time employee.  It is not easy to do (having hired and fired my share in my past) .  In the best of circumstances - difficult.  In the given setting (odd hours /little pay - brainless work with little opportunity for advancement and a guy who has no clue hiring) near impossible.While some of the characters were only partially fleshed, the story did not lack for that.  The main character - David - was realistically and well presented.  The twist at the end when dysfunctional becomes functional was good bit in this reader's mind.The genre allows leeway concerning some bits being off center.The drawback to this tale is the poor editing.  Especially after the 40% mark where the errors became quite numerous.  This story would have merited the star not given were the editing better.Christine
