Flash Fiction Friday - When The Going Gets Tough



Each Friday I write a short story in exactly 55 words. If you'd like to join in the fun and games, write your story, visit G-Man and let him know you've posted.




Jim was hard working and a joy to be around. His boss saw things differently, constantly putting Jim down and watching his every move. Didn’t he realize there was more to life than work? When it got too much, Jim would look to the future and his new life. He would have the last laugh.


Have a great weekend all. See you tomorrow for Coco's Animal Antics and Simply Delish.

  8. I tend to like guys who work hard and are a joy to be around. And working hard doesn't mean one doesn't do anything else in life.
