What Went Wrong?
My Boss is a Dick
Load Full StoryNext Chapter"David, hey David wake up." That's all I hear in my dreams before I force my eyes awake "whaa..." When my eyes have recovered from the sudden light I can finally see who it is. "Mr. Bise? Sir? How did you..." My boss rudely interrupted me "David we need you now, it's time.".
I could tell my boss saw my confusion until I realized what he was talking about. " Oh fudge turds." The secret project my company has been working on since 2007. The project that I was chosen to test.
I mean what else was I going to do? I was randomly chosen out of the company, and if I didn't accept, I was as good as fired. I really need this job for that vacation to Rio!
I quickly snapped out of my thoughts as my boss instructed " Be there in 1 hour or your salary going down to rock bottom." I waited for him to leave before I quickly showered, changed, and ate breakfast and then headed off to the company lab.
When I arrived, I noticed my boss standing on the curb just staring at his watch. I tried to greet him but he just looked at me and said "David you were .1738287462 seconds late, that's coming out of your paycheck." I must've looked like a complete dumbbell with the way I stared at him because he then doubled the money he was taking out of my paycheck.
After that confusing and pointless confrontation he lead me to the testing chamber, where inside it stood 'Project X' which was decorated like a blue phone booth. I found that odd considering it looked like something I saw a while ago...
"Marvelous isn't it?" I look to my right to see a scientist with a name tag 'Bill' "Umm what is it... Bill?" "Why it's a teleporter of course!" I was still a little confused "To where?" "Anywhere in the world!" Bill excitedly told me, but I was still a bit hesitant to move any further.
"How-" "Quit your stalling and get over there!" My boss jokingly yelled to me, then pushed me into the phone booth/teleporter thing. Not wanting to look like a complete wuss I walked toward the machine. "Wait!" The scientist said "We have to put these monitors on you to make sure you are stable after you teleport!"
"Hold on, Slow Down!" I yelled a bit too aggressively "Don't you at least want to tell me how this works?"
"Right... Ummm. We aren't completely sure..."
"What? How can you not be sure? You made it!"
"Actually we kinda stole it from Walmart."
I started thinking about just bolting when they closed and locked the door in front of me.
"What the Ballsack!"
There is no need for that kind of language David." Mr. Bise commented
Bill looked at me and said
"Just think about where you want to go and maybe that will work"
"'Maybe?' That's not too reassuring"
I'm still not very confident with this scientist
"Trust me, I'm a scientist."
Bill had kind of smirk that little children have when they are doing something mischievous.
"We are preparing the initial start sequence now."
I suddenly felt a rush of panic and said "wha, wha, where do I go? What do I do?"
Bill replied enthusiastically "Just think about where to go and we'll do the rest"
Just a fraction of a second later and I hear the pulling of a switch and the steady noise of reactors. I try to concentrate on where to go but my brain is too distracted by the rush this all is, I mean how am I supposed to think about a place and what I should have for lunch at the same time!? "I think I should go to-" There was a bright flash, then sudden darkness.
