Give your job the boot.

The office door flung open while entering in a rage he started “You expect me to work day and night to satisfy the customer. Do I look like a prostitute to you? You still want me to work for you on impossible targets. I was even called from home when sick to complete the project a month before target. The toilets stink the water never is filled in the weekends, still I work in this wretched place. The yearly hike has been put on hold and is promised for the next year and you still get the pay hike. The company stills earns billions in profits in spite of the recession. Do you think I should still believe your recession-no-hike story? Are you a butcher or what? I want to quit working for a leech.”

Utterly confused the employer looks up his desk “Hey! You don’t even work here.”

The anger disappears and a smile breaks on the dry lips.  “I couldn’t wait with 100 others for a single job vacancy. Why don’t you employ me? I won’t give you a chance to complain.”

    Very well written short story. Catches my attention and I feel the emotion of the main character. Then the surprise at the end is humorous and ties things together nicely.
