The young men are giving each other grooming tips. Pointy Sr. looks traumatized.

Who is pointy Sr., and what kind of grooming tips are these?

Pointy Sr. is a supervisor now (he was a lead for a while when I was at the other location); he is a verb when applied to problematic customers; these were the sorts of unnerving grooming tips that young geek males exchange. The one that I walked in on was "And you know how you know you're wearing too much cologne? If you can still smell it after a minute. You're not wearing it for *yourself*." Which is good advice as far as it goes, but it was evidently not the sort of convention that Pointy Sr. was particularly settled having to listen to. Given that it was nightshift, it was sort of a slumber party ambiance...

Night shift seems to do that to people.
