- Let's meet Amélie's coworkers, shall we?
- Suzanne, the owner, is an older lady with a limp.
- Georgette sells cigarettes and is a hypochondriac with sciatica. Or she just thinks she has sciatica.
- Gina is the waitress.
- Joseph is a little man spying on Gina and making notes about her with his tape recorder. He likes popping bubble wrap under his table.
- Philomène is a flight attendant, and Amélie watches her cat when she travels.
- On weekends, Amélie takes the train to visit her dad.
- Amélie likes to watch movies—well, she likes to watch the people watching the movies. She says, "I like noticing details that no one else sees."
- Sometimes Amélie spies on her neighbor, a painter nicknamed "the glass man" who is so fragile that all his furniture is padded.
