don't worry the DE subreddit has you covered

an even better final panel:
DRAMA [Heroic: Success] -- You should inquire how long this dough nut shop has existed. Perhaps you'll catch one in the act when their little stories don't add up. They could be lying to you, Sire.
AUTHORITY -- And when you catch them in the act, you will be the one in control
DRAMA -- "How long has this place been around?" the question feels good as it rolls off the tongue, it's casual, unsuspecting, but can easily find holes in their donut shop worker story they're trying to cook up. Holes like the donuts they are trying to sell you.
VOLITION -- See how this new question feels good as it rolls off tongue? Sometimes to make small talk you need to ask a variety of things, and you're getting better at it. You will reach these people. and you can make connections.

OFF CAMERA CLERK -- "For about four years."

LOGIC -- It seems all their stories add up. All of the dough nut shop workers you questioned have been working after the shop was founded.
DRAMA [Easy: Success] -- But you didn't ask this clerk how long he has been working here, sire. Perhaps he is the one who is lying to you.
RHETORIC -- Please, don't.

YOU -- "For about four years? Okay. How long you been here?"

RHETORIC -- You didn't even try this time. You have one more shot at this.

OFF CAMERA CLERK -- "Uh, a little over six months"

LOGIC -- Oh no.
DRAMA -- Oh no.
AUTHORITY -- Oh no.
RHETORIC -- Oh no.

1.- "Okay. Good."

Followed by asking how long the BAKERY has been there.

It's like he's an AI training on recognizing age.

I tapped out like a minute in, jesus christ. I don't see how this guy could get elected dogcatcher, let alone a fucking senator. Who ran against him in the primary?

Okay, so the failson of the owner of the Cleveland Guardians and a crypto bro:

In November 2018, Mandel made Ohio the first U.S. state to allow taxpayers to pay taxes with cryptocurrency. Mandel's initiative, OhioCrypto.com, allowed Ohio taxpayers to pay tax bills in Bitcoin; he described the initiative as a way to project Ohio as a state that is embracing blockchain technology. Mandel described himself as a cryptocurrency enthusiast and said that he hoped the launch of OhioCrypto.com would bring more legitimacy to cryptocurrency. Ohio Attorney General Yost subsequently found, "The Treasurer's use of a payment processor to convert cryptocurrency into dollars for the payment of taxes is not authorized, expressly or impliedly, by statutes allowing the receipt of electronic payments." Mandel's successor suspended the program, noting that it had processed fewer than ten transactions.

Always a treat to see these so-called men of the people fumble their way through encounters with actual working class people.
