Cleaning the toilet
Marianna was a little surprised by this offer. The idea of hiring a homeless man to work in the restaurant had never even occurred to her. The toilet was in desperate need of being cleaned once more, so she decided to give Tom a chance despite her initial, understandable reluctance.
Getting a chance
The porcelain thrones shone like they had never shone before within 20 minutes of Tom’s willingness to do this without complaining. And since the rain was still falling, Tom immediately enquired as to whether there was anything else he could do. Marianna decided that it was at least worthwhile to verify his claims that he had experience working in a restaurant.
