๐จ THE APPRENTICE HAS FINALLY TURNED 18 ๐จ
And somehow, on the exact same day, Iโve turned 31. ๐
Iโve spent the last few months training this bloke, watching him come a bloody long way, work his arse off and do more for me and the shop than he probably realises.
So naturally, to celebrate his 18th, Iโve given him the REST OF THE WEEK OFF.
What a generous boss. โค๏ธ
โฆOr maybe I just wanted a few days of peace and quiet. ๐
Seriously though mate, youโve come a bloody long way and I couldnโt be happier with the worker youโve become. Youโre always willing to help, you work hard and I genuinely appreciate everything youโve done for me and the shop.
Now for the important partโฆ
I only have TWO embarrassing photos of you.
But after staring at them for long enough, Iโve decided that two is plenty. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐
๐ธ Exhibit A
๐ธ Exhibit B
Please study the evidence carefully. This is what Iโve had to put up with. ๐
Youโre officially 18 now, so you can legally drink, make your own terrible decisions and unfortunatelyโฆ
youโre still the apprentice. ๐๐ช
Have a bloody good birthday mate! Enjoy your week off โ youโve earned it.
And happy 31st to me too! ๐๐ป
Although between the two of us, Iโm the one who really deserves the week off. ๐๐ฅฉ
