EXTRACT FOR Bribed For Bareback Anal Sex (Nicola Diaz) 
"Oh no, dear. You're the best clerk we have. Ted and I discussed it and we believe you deserve a raise. We're giving you a dollar an hour raise, plus full health benefits," Judson said. Ted was his brother and partner owner of Gateway Grocery. Ciara smiled as she bounced in her seat.
"Oh! I'll take it. Thanks! For a minute you scared me. I thought I had done something wrong. Or worse, that you were letting me go," she said.
"Oh no, not at all. We want to keep you. We'll reevaluate again in six months. If you keep doing an exemplary job we'll consider another raise then," Judson said as he beamed a big smile in her direction.
Ciara returned to work the next day with a spring in her step. Her new raise gave her energy to face the customers with an extra smile. She took care of each one, making sure the older ones and handicap had help once they were home and certainly she called for help to load their vehicles. She enjoyed checking out customers, even the overwrought mothers with babies in their arms and a fist full of coupons. As much of a pain as it was to make sure all the prices were correct, Ciara did it with respect and friendliness.
Ciara became confident in her job as she realized she made more than the other clerks. The realization went to her head and she became cocky with the other clerks. When Judson and Ted weren't around, she acted as if she were the supervisor in charge. If any of the clerks messed up or garnered a customer complaint, she took it upon herself to chastise the clerk. She did it in the name of helping the person improve their job.
Her cocky attitude didn't escape some of the customers as she let the raise and position cause her to have a big head about it. She figured she'd ease up on the attitude when it came closer to her six-month evaluation.
JJ Collins worked in the butcher shop and he grabbed Ciara's attention. She smiled whenever he traipsed through the checkout area. Normally, he wore an apron splattered with blood and bits of meat. It gave him an unappetizing appearance but she forgave it since he had such good looks. He worked out at the gym and it showed in his buffed muscles.
On a break, Ciara sidled up to JJ as he had removed the nasty apron and stood at the counter eating a quick snack. He grinned when she bumped into him on purpose. "How is your day going?" she asked as she grabbed a package of salad crackers someone had left on the counter.
"My day is going. Had a customer a bit miffed that I didn't have their cut of meat in the case. I had to butcher the side of beef just to make the man happy," JJ said.
Ciara frowned. "Mr. Harmon. He's a hard one to please. He always has a complaint in the line," she said.
JJ furrowed his brow at her. "I've never heard you say a cross word about anyone," he said.
Ciara waved her hand at the man. "Oh, some customers deserve a cross word." She giggled. "Not a crossword puzzle, a cross word. Get it?"
