The Upswing

Friday was a watershed moment at work.
I’m not in management, but I’m one of the few who’s worked in that office since it opened 5 years ago. The office has grown and the staff has expanded with the concomitant growing pains.
Office politics, I have no patience for. I try to steer clear, but things came to a head like the reddest, juiciest, nastiest pimple you’ve ever seen. And I popped that son of a bitch.
We’ll see what the fallout is, but I tell you one thing.
I ain’t skeered.
It felt good to be the one to finally bring the hammer down despite not being the eldest or male. Felt damn good.
