Today, for lack of original content, I present my entry in Chuck “Chunk” Wendig’s latest Flash Fiction Challenge.
100 words or less (98, booyah) on bullying:
“We’re out of coffee again Johnboy”
“You know, it’s not really my job to make coffee for you”
“No, your job is to finish up on last week’s numbers, and yet Ericson hasn’t seen a report yet”
“That’s because Grant hasn’t done his part of the…”
“Or, according to Grant, it’s because you’re lazy”
“What?”
“Terry and Andrew mentioned how you’re bugging them..” “I never” “… so you’ll be helping with
their numbers as well. And don’t forget: Coffee”
On days like this, it was comforting to think of the locked box in his drawer. 17 bullets. More than
enough.
