Quaids extended rain break [1]

It was a busy friday night only a few weeks ago, bucketing down with rain outside. There we're three or four lines of customers going all the way to the stools in the front window. At the time it was only me doing 4:1 and 10:1 as Silas had left to get some stock of some sort. I remember I was making nine regs when the buzzer went off. I lifted up the toaster, grabbed the tray and burned my self. Not being able to continue with the regs I went to see Quaid to see If he had any burn cream. (The burn was so bad I still have a scar today). Then I looked outside where Quaid was having a smoke in the rain, (not on the little covered verandah, actually in the rain), so I thought I'd finish the regs and wait for him to come back inside. The 15th minute had past and I was still in pain, so I looked for Quaid one last time. The last place I thought he would be was outside. He was still standing in the rain having a second smoke but there was no second cigarette. HE WAS JUST STANDING THERE...IN THE RAIN...GETTING WET. I wisely chose not to interrupt him. I just went back inside.
