Flash Fiction #89

Potty

I DON’T GIVE A SHIT

Danny’s bunch of guys were a good crew. Many of them had been with him since he started his own little construction/renovation company.

With a little ingenuity, a discarded toilet, and an old trailer, he provided a Porta-Potty for the men at work sites. He had it emptied every week, and definitely before he parked it in his driveway between contracts.  Still….his wife complained of the odor.  “If you don’t correct the problem, I’ll do something to make it smell nicer.”

And so, he came out to find this.

    When I chose this photo I saw titles such as yours on the horizon. Your story’s amusing and it’s nice to see you didn’t waste words. 😉

    Shalom,

    Hehe, the wife sure has interesting ideas. Next time, maybe he finds another place to park his portapotty. Great story, you make me feel sympathy for Danny and his wife, both.
