JUDGEMENT DAY
In a way, it must be comforting to have everything ‘figured out’, and have labels for everyone and everything. If only people would keep their mouth shut about them. People like his dim-witted, red-neck, Bible-thumping, narrow-minded, KKK-supporting, Trump-voting boss. He spewed opinions about everybody.
Negroes (not his term) were stupid, lazy, jungle-bunnies. Chicanos were job-stealing taco benders. Jews were Christ-killing con artists. And those homosexual sinners??? Well, he knew which guys walking down the street were gay, just by the way they moved.
It must feel good to put everyone in a pigeonhole, even if they weren’t the right ones.

Nice use of the prompt. I hope this boss gets his judgement day sometime soon!

I would hope so too, but history shows that it’s unlikely. He enjoys his Peter Principle position. 😯 😦

Some are so much worse than others. I don’t expect anyone to rejoice that, “At least mine’s not that bad.” It’s like beating your head against the wall. It feels so good when you stop. 😳

Dear Archon,
I applaud you for your clever use of the prompt. As for the boss, I’d love to drop something heavy on his pea sized head.
Shalom,
Rochelle
