MillionDollar Belt Sander:
Perhaps his glasses are similar to that Google Glass thing that was in the new not too long ago. He's got GPS/Smart-Phone/Game Status updates piped right to his face... he can see out but we can't see in.
We'll see, hopefully Jeph explains it at some point.

But I don't see any of the usual suspects being quite experienced enough to carry out the duties of the day-shift manager of tSB or whatever title would best describe Padma's job. Faye possibly, but I doubt she is interested at this time with all the sculpting and such. HannerMom might like to see her daughter try out small time management, but I'm not sure Hanners would enjoy it? She might be a natural though (aided by generous amount of ativan)?
I don't quite understand the ongooing Daaaleeeeing. Was it not Dale who gave the word DAAANG to QC? Ok, may be it was Dale1.0?
FunkyTuba:
I don't understand the Dale hate... he's been shown to have ties to other characters than just Marigold, having him closer to the inner circle strengthens his character development opportunities, adding an employee would allow Dora to actually grow her business (should she decide to go after the wholesale coffee market with her best-we-know-of coffee in *hampton).
It feels like a story line that wants telling about a compelling character, looking forward to seeing where this goes.
Truec:
The thing is, he isn't a compelling character yet. He's that guy who delivers pizza, is a good enough CoD customer to get secret menu privileges, and may or may not act in a creepy manner toward Marigold. And he takes video games way too seriously.
Have I missed anything, or is that pretty much the sum total of what we know about Dale?
Not to say that I think this is a bad thing. Note the qualifier 'yet' in my first sentence. I think this is a great chance for Jeph to actually give Dale some characterization beyond being a weirdo game shut-in who acts questionable creepy toward another weirdo gamer shut-in. The fact that he wants out of pizza delivery can be the start of some excellent character development, and Dale needs it.
Is it cold in here?:
The Secret Bakery could promote someone from within to fill Padma's position and recruit for the resulting vacancy.
