August 28: A Word or Two, Clerk, Be Kind

"No," said Scrooge, "No, I should like to be able to say a word or two to my clerk just now!  That's all."

Scrooge has just witnessed Fezziwig being kind to his younger self.  Scrooge is feeling a little bit of remorse over his treatment of Bob Cratchit, his clerk.  It's the first time Scrooge has ever expressed any kind of guilt over any of his actions.  The old bastard is starting to learn a few lessons.

I don't have a lot of time to blog this morning.  Too much going on.

Suffice to say, Saint Marty works for Scrooge, not Fezziwig.

What kind of boss do you have?
