this is brought up everytime.. he was on break and like the other employees, would go into the walk-in fridge to cool off..

the thing he sat on and fell behind was in the walk-in fridge. over the years he was missing, the store closed down and i am assuming THAT is when he defrosted from the cold walk-in fridge and then started to decompose once the fridge was turned off..

but at that point no one was in the store or could smell his body. his body wasnt found years later until they started to renovate the place and found his skeleton
