Inktober: Day 30 - Possession

“Look, I know today has been stressful but you know what, things get better because you always get to go home at the end of the day.”
That was it. That was the straw that finally broke the camel’s back. “Okay, you know what? I’m done. I’m done.” I said, laughing almost manically. “I’v done all that I can for this godforsaken job. You know why I took the job? To pay for college. And college is paid off now. So you listen to me, okay? I am so sick and fucking tired of putting up with your bullshit. This job was tolerable and then you showed up.”
He looked at me with surprised eyes as I shoved my hands through my hair.
“You treat us like little kids, all of us, and I’m not the only one sick of it. Yes, you’ve plenty to be pissy about but you know what, so do the rest of us, so piss off with trying to make this a competition for who has it worse at the moment. You can piss off and this job can piss off. I’m done. I quit. It was not a pleasure working with you.”
With that, I threw my hat onto the floor, peeled out of my work shirt and tossed it down as well. Standing there in black pants and a tank top, I turned and stomped out. I’d probably regret saying all that later but, right now, I felt a bit better. Whatever rage had possessed me would wear off soon but it was still going strong for now, and I was okay with that.
