In line commentary;
Why would she consider working at a burger joint the luckiest thing ever?
I truly do not comprehend how they could leave Sarah alive
overnight in the dumpster! Why would they wait for another day to get rid of her?
The employee saying the job place was starting to get crowded (although only one person was just hired) does not make sense to me.
You didn’t previously indicate that Casey was in a sour mood, so I think you might want to say she became in a sour mood or maybe she was in an agitated/ nervous mood.
The first part with Sarah sounds like an intro or prologue… maybe you could separate it like this only If you want.
I really wouldn’t trust a person standing outdoors who simply calls out to me for a job. It doesn’t seem realistic. Why would the manager be waiting outside to hire someone? How did she know Casey just came from an interview? Makes more sense for Casey to stumble upon the for hire sign instead.
I think you should make the entire interview dialogue sound more professional. She needs to ask for resume and speak in standard English without being so casual. You should perhaps indicate that the stack of papers is a job contract or employee job description? Just to make the elements of the story more credible. She also shouldn’t refer to the potential employee as ‘kid’.
And Casey came Absolutely unprepared for an interview! She’s not presenting herself well. ‘sort of did so and so’ instead of stating her previous job roles and ‘does that count’ ‘is that the only position’ does not sound good. I personally wouldn’t hire her...
A lot of characters stutter or start off the sentence with ‘oh.’ I think you should limit it generally or leave it as a defining trait for a single character.
That's all my suggestions. I will definitely be reading the next chapter. I have absolutely no idea what the secret is and i wanna know Buuut is it the cliché cannibal joint??? -.-' is it? Na, I trust your story skills.
P.S. Oh my gosh, I would never forgive myself if I made it a cannibal restaurant. I swear I'm not that tasteless!
