1	* Why exactly would Coach Halder need to know if Jen (and, by extension, any of his other employees) had a sister? Or any siblings at all for that matter? Job applications usually don't ask about an applicant's relatives unless said applicant possibly had a relative who's a current/former employee at the establishment that they're applying to or if they're asking for emergency contacts (to Jen which probably put down her parents or something).
2	** Maybe it's [[DirtyOldMan not for business]]...
3	* How can Wayne expect to open his store on December 25th when the mall itself isn't even open on that day?
4	** He probably didn't think that far ahead when he came up with the idea.
5	* If Caitlin loves shopping so much, [[LimitedWardrobe why is she always wearing the same clothes?]]
6	** The animators don't want to deal with different clothing on the characters.
7	*** Plus she's a cartoon character, so she has a LimitedWardrobe.
8	** Maybe her normal clothes are just her casualwear for when she wants to be comfortable? She's absolutely the kind of girl who would change outfits during the day multiple times depending on what she's doing.
9	* So...how old is Wayne supposed to be? I get the feeling he's at least a few years older than the main gang, but in "Role Reversal" when Caitlin accidentally asked him out no one seemed to think it'd be weird for them to go on a date.
10	** He's at least younger then college age.
11	* Since [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At-will_employment "at-will" employment]] doesn't exist in Canadian labour law, either at the federal or provincial level, how does Jonesy keep getting fired so easily? See also, Chrissy firing Nikki for a non-work-related incident in "Welcome to the Darth Side", when Chrissy fires Nikki for finding out a trivial secret.
12	** Part of it is RuleOfFunny, other times it's more realistic. Jonesy at some points either ditches a shift, insults customers, breaks policies from time to time, or because of some get rich quick scheme.
13	** The real question is how does he keep getting hired? All of the jobs he gets on the show are in the mall, you'd think store managers would already know about his reputation.
14	** If it's anything like wear I work then there may be a trial period of a couple months where they can be fired much easier. Since he never lasts for long he never gets out of the trial period.
15	* Ron the Rent-a-Cop’s past is kind of confusing. Especially the claims of his service in Vietnam. He once mentioned in a Christmas themed episode the fire truck toy he had as a child wasn’t made until 1968, well into the time the Vietnam War was going on. And he also mentioned his father went off to war around his childhood. Could it be possible his father served in both Korea and Vietnam? Could it also be possible that Ron may have lied about his age when he served in the war?
16	** If Ron WAS the military, he probably has severe PTSD, which likely affected his memory.
