Kebab & Horoscope

It's a story about a group of employees of a carpet store, who, one day, get confronted with two crooks, with graceful nicknames Kebab and Horoscope. They enter the store and claim to be marketing specialists and begin a training in order to save the store from bankruptcy. The store staff, that consists of characters incredibly colorful in their blandness, apart from doing a rather useless tasks in the store have to deal with their private lives.
