2015 Seattle, WA I was not pleased. I had completed an audit of a bank in Seattle, which resulted in the arrest of the manager and several employees. Instead of getting my usual reward and hitting the road in search of new adventures I was stuck managing that very bank until they found a replacement. I suspected that my reward of being kept of at this bra...
I pushed myself away from my desk in frustrated boredom. I am sick of this job and the people I have to work with. Almost all of them are lazy and work harder to get out of their assigned work than they would if they actually did it. The first fifteen years I had worked here I did my work then went around and took work off other's desks to help, to be a team...
Brian Davies sat on the hard toilet seat in a cubicle of the men's room on the twelfth floor of the building housing the large publishing company he worked for; he was reading the Daily Mail and trying to kill the last half hour before quitting time. As a middle-management employee he didn't really work mandated hours; he was expected to work whatever hours...
I was advertising for a new legal assistant in the Ohio State University student newspaper, and I was overwhelmed with people looking for work. The applicants would line up and I would interview them one by one. Most of them I immediately rejected as someone whom I would never give thousands of dollars of my money to. But there were many, so many, who were b...
The PI Who Knew Too Much-03 Previously, on The PI Who Knew Too Much— More interesting were a passport for someone named Samuel Barlow who looked exactly like Bezier, a bundle of C-notes (I didn't bother to count them), a .38 revolver, and a box of ammo. Most interesting was a small journal, about the size of a pocketbook novel, filled with page after page...
Carla wanted to finish up a few things in the office before going to Murphy's. I decided to go so we could get our seats before the happy hour rush. Sylvia greeted me at the door in her usual fashion. "Hiya Pheury! Murph! Look who's here." When Murph saw me, you'd have thought we were long lost brothers. He came out from behind the bar, something he usual...
My name is Nicole this is the story of the craziest thing I've done thus far. Most people who know me would not believe the story I am about to tell. In fact I have actually lived a pretty boring life up until now. I pretty much did what was expected of me... went to school, got good grades, and never got in trouble. Most people who knew me growing up would...
I was new in the office, hired through a newspaper ad. I'd noticed the handsome man in the cubicle next to me and we'd flirted a little. Maybe this job wouldn't be so bad after all? I hadn't finished my first day of full work when I received an email on the personal account they had set up for me. There was no subject, but when I opened the email it simply s...
Andy sat at his cubicle and sighed in frustration. Why couldn't he ever get a break? Why did his wife have to make all the money? The people here at work didn't respect him; they simply threw work at him on a regular basis. Today had been no exception. He couldn't wait to get out of there, but it wasn't hardly even lunch time yet. He pressed his glasses up o...
I wake up after six long hours of restlessly rolling around and sleeping on the carpeted floor all the while you sleep so sweetly and soundly in a Queen sized bed that's big enough to hold at least four people. I don't dare wake you yet as I remember the list you have given me with chores to do before waking you. Six hours earlier as I'm kneeling on the fl...
