    "What are you working on?"I put the soldering iron on its stand and inspected my work."A time travel receiver. I figured out the machine can't travel in time itself.""Do you have a transmitter too?"I plugged the power in. "Not yet."A newspaper appeared in the machine."I will, next year."#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories #scienceFiction

    The time traveller closed the book and stared blankly ahead. "So," said the author, "was that what-""No! That wasn't at all- It's a warning!""Allegorical, but y-""It's not you I need to kill, it's the person who read this and still wanted to build the Torment Nexus!""Kill?""I must go!"#MicroFiction #TootFic #SmallStories #TormentNexus

    @microfiction #microfiction Interviewer: So I assume you're adept at all Office products, right?Me: All except PowerPoint.Interviewer: What do you mean? Everybody knows how to use PowerPoint.Me: I'm sure I could figure it out. F1 brings up the help menu. It's how I learned the other modules in the Office suite. I just hate PowerPoint. It's garbage. Nobody should use it. Ever. Have IT delete it off all your computers.Interviewer: What? How would you give a presentation then?Me: I don't know. It's been a long time since I took Public Speaking. Tell you what--give me a topic and a week to prepare and I'll come up with a creative presentation that will actually keep people engaged.Interviewer: You took Public Speaking?Me: Yes. Of course. Isn't that kind of a basic requirement if you want to call yourself educated? And, I mean, it's not easy to learn on your own. If you're gonna get up and sing the ABC song at the salad bar at Shoney's, you better do it at the end of your meal 'cuz they're gonna throw you out. I did that once, y'know.Interviewer: You did? Why?Me: Lost a bet. My boss was a prick.Interviewer: Well, you're either getting the job or referred to the FBI for heavy surveillance. Probably both. Welcome aboard!
