At 10: 30 a.m. on Tuesday, September 2, 2009, Rose Batson stepped out of the Texaco gas station that she managed to grab a smoke. None of the four self-serve pumps were in use, and Rose spat on the ground after blowing out her first puff. “Ain’t makin’ no money today,” she said to herself, taking a long drag on her Camel unfiltered cigarette. Of course, it made no difference to Rose. She was on salary.

If I find myself 'tidying up' after the author, I usually abandon the story. I'm there to read it; not to rewrite it.
