Morale Moral

[WP] You are at your job pretending to work when your boss frantically rushes into your cubicle with a promise of a raise if you pretend to be him for 5 minutes. You are sitting there fumbling for words when three men in suits walk up to you both and ask, “Which one of you is Mr. Vincent?” from WritingPrompts

“You want a raise!?

Paid vacation for days!?

Take my place when

the question is asked. Then

you’ll be, ‘Top Employee!’

Mr. Vincent tightened his tie.

He sat on a chair and slouched.

He held a frightened look in his eye;

no longer the office grouch.

Three men of pale pigment

entered. “Which one of you is

the mean boss, Mr. Vincent?”

The tallest one quizzed.

I smiled and showed my I.D.

“Him, not me.”
