What's up with all the work place shootings? I have been disappointed after being laid off. I have gone on a drinking spree, been mad at everyone, and even went shopping for items I did not need nor that I should have been spending money on. I have been laid off from many a job.
I owned guns at the time but it never dawn on me I could or should shoot the place up. Even when I was drunk. Is this the new millennium way to create jobs?
When one applies for a job, should that person inform H.R. they have a gun and are willing to use it if they are fired? How big a gun and how much ammo should one buy? Where to store it? At home or in the locker at work? Should you separate the gun from the ammo for safety reasons? Who does a laid off worker shoot? H.R.? Dock workers or the friend in the next booth? Should he ask, before the shooting begins, just how many positions H.R. wants to create? And what type?
So many questions to be solved while planning the great shooting just in case one looses a job. I’m so busy with the job, I do not have time to do the planning let alone the actual deed. Maybe after retirement I will have time. Oh. Wait. I am retired.
Works for me.
My Flash Fiction. More than anything, I take from life experiences, twist it, give it some abstract and a story is born. Sometimes I just write a non-sense sentence or a few words just to see what develops. It's surprising how often the story just flows and seems to write it's self. I write as if I was talking. Then I do a lot of editing. I spend a lot more time editing the story than I do writing it from scratch. Many writers get it right the first time. I am not one of those.
