I Made an Assassination Attempt at Work

Unfortunately, I chickened out

“Happy Birthday!!!” A group of my coworkers screamed at me as I walked into the breakroom.

How did you shitfucks know?

“Oh my gosh, how did you guys find out it’s my birthday?” I asked.

Using my “pretend I don’t make you on The Sims and trap you in a dark room” voice.

“Charlotte told us!” They said between cheers.

Oh, that twat.

Charlotte ran towards me and wrapped her arms around me in a hug. She was my best work friend, I don’t know why. She was a fuck crumb. Our friendship lasted about a year before I kicked her dick to the curb.

When I was released from Charlotte’s arms, I scanned the room. Everybody started to scatter.

That’s it? You gathered for that?! Where’s my mother fucking cake?

Tonight, those fucker’s Sims are getting trapped in a swimming pool.

Two hours later, Julie, a coworker, scurried up to me in the hallway as I was walking aimlessly.

And pondering when would be a good time to ask for a raise.
