Unfortunately, I believe in the power of fear. I believe the prey feeds the predator in more ways than one and I refuse to remain the prey anymore. I and my co-worker plan to execute a robbery on our fellow establishment. Establishments in a franchise can have many bosses but they can only have one disgusting Dexter Lewish. His transfer following the recent complaints shows that he is considered to be one of the special ones that complete the trifecta of abuse and gets no consequence by the law, so we are enacting the consequences ourselves. With the help of Levi, we have access to his office above the supermarket floor and his schedule. Anais was able to get a position there and altered her appearance. Levi was one of the three people that worked closely with Dexter but he understood our plight. The silence after the anonymous profiles we created to tell his stories showed us that displaying his crooked ways in the business might make others care about justice a bit more. The following Tuesday at noon, we convened to steal his managerial past and present digital documents but Anais feared for her new position and reported it.
