The Four Mafia Men and Their Prize by M C

“I am not going to lie to you Ms. Whitmore, we do not think you are the right candidate for this job. This is an extremely competitive position and there are simply more qualified candidates. And prettier too” said the lady manager.

Right! Says the woman with a too tight black pencil skirt, opened w h i t e silk blouse showing off her extremely fake b o o b s in her clashing black push-up bra. Her hair was over hair sprayed and fizzed. It looked like a bird using it for its pooping grounds. Way too much makeup almost as if she was auditioning for RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Clearly she was the skank looking a little desperate for attention from her superiors.

“Okay,” I said dramatically. “Thank you for your time. Good luck in at the w h o r e house tonight,” I added as I walked out of the conference room with my head held high.

Who needs to work at this big a s s corporation anyway with these fake wannabe Barbies and spoiled arrogant men…oh wait…I do.

The salary, the experience, the chance to work real hours behind a desk… but how in the h e l l can you gain experience if you aren’t given the opportunity? I swear these companies always want preppy 20-year-olds with 30 years of specified experience. Like come on people! No one wants to take the time to train someone. Ever think that is why your turnover rate is so high?!? You can’t command loyalty if you don’t take the time to train your workers.

Bastards.

But here I am, standing at the b r a s s elevator doors waiting for them to open and swallow me and take me back down to the ground floor of total despair of the real world.

The reception desk phone is ringing loudly while the prissy little girl behind the desk openly flirts with the male standing by the counter checking some papers. Her giggle is obnoxious. Her high-pitched squeal makes me want to cringe but alas I just roll my eyes and begin to notice the intricate wood design plastered on the walls around the elevator.

So long a s s h a t s. Who needs DuPont Enterprises anyway? And who the heck does “Charlie DuPont” think he is. He doesn’t know what he is missing.

Ding! Saved by the bell from my own degrading rant.

I enter the sleek black interior and hit the “L” button. The quaint tinkling piano music serenading the silence as I begin the descent from the 82nd floor.

As the elevator doors open up at the bottom, I walk out to the left and hand my visitor key card to the security guard at the front and mutter my thanks with a small smile.

Suddenly a b u z z starts up from my dark purple Prada bag hanging in my right arm. The one expensive article of clothing I own. It was my 20th birthday present to myself. I worked double shifts at the restaurant I worked at for 4 months to pay for it. It’s my prized possession and I’m so in love with it.

B u z z. B u z z. Ugh, what now! I pull out my phone with my baby pink case with rhinestones on it and look at the screen. 9 texts messages from Britney! I start reading as I walk outside. Oh boy! This girl is my best friend, but she is something else!

His b*dy and clothes show burn marks from the last 2 hours of beatings and electric shocks. It clearly is
