The Great Baja Mess
At my Taco Place, we sell a flavor of Mountain Dew called Baja Blast. It's really good. I love it 
It's a really popular flavor. For those who have never seen the inner workings of a fountain machine, the pop is made like so:
We get bags of syrup enclosed in a box. We un-cap it, hook it up to a hose, and put it on a shelf. When someone gets pop, the syrup mixes with water and is carbonated while it is sent thru a tube, to the machine and into the customer's cup.
When the syrup is all used up, the box must be switched out with a new one.
Tina called for Paul to change the Baja Blast because a customer complained that it was watery and a coworker confirmed it. So Paul went in back, unhooked the empty box and put a new box up. Now, Paul is a big, tough guy, so he punches the box to open it. This is when I walked back to get some dishes. He pulls off the cap, and Baja Blast syrup gushed/sprayed/splashed EVERYWHERE! It was on the floor, on the other boxes, on Paul, on the trash that was back there.... I laughed my ass off!
Me: What did you do?!!
Paul: Nothing!!
Me: You broke it!
Paul: No! It was defective!
Q comes back.
Q: What smells like fruit rollups?
Me:
Paul: The Baja Blast broke!!
Me: No, PAUL broke it!
Paul: Shuddup!
Paul put the broken box in the mop sink and walked away to clean himself up. I grabbed a mop, Q grabbed a rag, I started on the floors, Q started wiping down the boxes.
Me: ....Wait a minute....why are we cleaning this mess if Paul made it?
Q: ......I dunno!
Paul comes back and starts whining about how it smells bad and it's so sticky blah blah blah...
Q: Well if you didn't have to Incredible Hulk the cap off, you wouldn't have to clean it!!!
While we (me and Paul) were cleaning the mess, 5 people commented on the fruity smell
Btw, the cap wasnt't defective. Paul pulled the whole thing off instead of just the cap
