100-WORD STORY

You’re Fired!

A response to thank you.

Thank you! This word certainly hits your nerves When Your family needs your urgent help when you’re already running late Your boss called in sick for the important pitch to one of the Devil Incarnate (Client) You’re waiting for your dearest friend, and they sign off saying they couldn’t make it. Remember Agony Aunt self-inviting herself for dinner? And suddenly, your life is in the spotlight! Your Nosy Neighbor plans an impromptu getaway and shoves their pet when you’re allergic! And always, that pesky sibling, dragging you to hell!

Now, of course, wouldn’t you wish you could fire them?

Thank you for reading! This is in response to a rant I tried to write in a funny format. Open to suggestions!

Thank you Ellie Jacobson for this prompt and chance.
