A Real Breadwinner

I overheard the owner of a local sub shop talking about how their morning deliveries of bread (sub rolls both wheat and white, and maybe the occasional box of flatbread) had been pillaged, pilfered, raided. Parts of their bread orders had been absconded with and vanished into a doughy nothingness in the wee hours of the morning.
His idea was to put out a sign that says "Thou Shalt Not Steal." When I heard this, it made me excited. So the next morning, I staked out the place and waited for the eagle to land (the delivery to be made) and the sign to be applied donning the foreboding cautionary message of "Thou Shalt Not Steal."
I swiftly made my way down the alley, across the street, and managed to pry loose a bit of sub roll for myself and my disciples.

I left a sign that said "Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread."
