My Teacher's Night




A Not So Hellish Night

 He hates it when things don't  go as planned just like what happened to him last night. He was busy working on blender recipes that needed to be posted on a website that my boss is currently developing. His boss, a typical American, is very strict when it comes to deadlines. Failure to deliver is perceived as complacency deserving of dire consequences. So, last night and just like any other night, his intention was to please this 'jacko', or else he will be up my neck again nagging. With freshly brewed coffee, he was widely awake clicking the keyboard - grabbing images from different websites, rewriting recipes and posting. Then the unexpected happened - his internet connection suddenly got jammed! His blood pressure automatically shot up because no internet connection means no posting, and no posting means Ryan, his boss, will be giving him hell online. In on time, he called his internet provider and asked them if they could do something with the connection. The technical support on the other line did the best he could , but he didn't manage to restore connection. In his head, he was telling himself, " I AM SO DEEEEEAAAAAD!". Realizing that there was nothing he could do, he decided to sleep it off. In the morning, connection had been restored and Ryan was on Skype. Before clicking the "converse" button, he made peace with the idea that he was about to get fired. to his amazement after an explanation peppered with sincere apology from his end, Ryan was just okay with everything.


Now, he still have his job. What could have been a hellish night wasn't to hellish after all. :)
