Coffee Boy<\/a><\/em> (2016) Austin Chant<\/p>\n

\"Coffee<\/a>Kiernan doesn’t like his food service job, but at least it pays the bills. <\/p>\n

(M)anagers have never exactly declared him their favorite employee, but they do praise his attitude, which is funny because no one else ever has. And it\u2019s all because Kieran has never burst into tears over a customer screaming at him, never complained about kids spilling their soda all over the counter and all over his shoes, never had much of a reaction at all to customers getting up in his face and sneering sweetie, girl, bitch.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But he can’t turn down an internship (even an unpaid one) when he was recommended for the job by one of his teachers.<\/p>\n

Kieran\u2019s duties as \u201cadministrative intern\u201d aren\u2019t extremely specific. They\u2019re more general, like, \u201cDo everything that Marcus sucks at.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But Kiernan’s biggest problem is that the most respectful person in the office is his uptight supervisor.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is great,\u201d Kieran mumbles. \u201cThat\u2019s the problem.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cOhhh,\u201d Jillian says. \u201cKieran. Are you mad because he\u2019s cute?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cCheck, please”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Can we not?\u201d That\u2019s all Kieran can muster, for a moment. <\/p>\n

Seth pauses, staring at him, startled and expectant. <\/p>\n

Kieran swallows and fumbles for politer words. \u201cYou know\u2014like\u2014if you get a splinter or something, it doesn\u2019t hurt until you fucking press on it?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cAh,\u201d Seth says.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s not a bad story, but for some reasons I’d got it into my head this was an ace story, which it isn’t. And I wasn’t in the mood for boinking.<\/p>\n
