Selling Fireworks

I do this every New Year's (to make money in between college semesters), and this last time was a total bust! I had to dress like Uncle Sam and grow a beard to attract customers, and my beard was red (WHICH ISN'T MY FAULT), and I'm pretty sure my beard actually deterred customers, especially ones with little children! They probably thought I was a hairy ogre from a nightmare, and then my manager made it worse by making me take my shirt off and flex at passing cars! It was definitely not the friendly environment we try to cultivate at TNT Fireworks. More on this later.
