Work For It

Lucy You see grew up rich and spoiled, a brat. One day when she was sixteen she laughed at a kid from school. “You having a successful business I don’t see it. In fact where would you get the money, you are only going to this school because you have a scholarship. Being smart doesn’t mean you have money.” She said at lunch. “Like you said being smart doesn’t mean you have money, you aren’t.” Roxanne said. Lucy walked away to have fun with friends but Roxanne studied. “Omg can you believe it’s the end of school. I am so sad gonna miss you Jessi.” She walked away with Betty “Not gonna miss her.”

“Ok some of you couldn’t pass because you need to work more hard but that’s ok you can just take another year.” The teacher said. “So the people who did not pass are Lucy, and Oscar.” Everyone was silent, they knew Lucy would make a big fit. Some thought she had been calm this time but no, she was so angry her face was red and so angry silent. “You better listen to me that Roxanne better stay behind too, and get you failed if I failed, SO LET ME PASS!” Everyone was silent the teacher looked scared and Roxanne got up “Look your parent can pay her off, and next to,e work harder or your going to be broke.” Lucy closed her eyes and sighed then got up slowly “me, be broke? Like you said my parents can pay them off.” The teacher slowly stumbled to her desk and stuttered “I wi-will talk ta-to y-your parents.” After then her parents sat her down for a talk that would change her life forever. “Lucy we are almost broke, looks like we’ve spent money to quickly. Your father will go back to work, and we might move but we can still afford for your collage.” Lucy was afraid to tell them she got up and said “Your funny, Look I didn’t pass so we have to pay the teachers off.” Her parents weren’t happy. She had to go to public school. Seven years later she had 3 kids and was Married, she was going to a job interview she went to a company and Roxanne was there, “Oh hi long time no see, Do you work as an employee at one of there stores?”She said Roxanne was confused and then said “No and you can’t be in here this is my office.”

Lucy was surprised and then said “ Oh sorry I just wanted to have an interview with the owner.”

Roxanne realized what she was here for and laughed “Oh, you! Well I’m the owner and you weren’t suppose to meet me in here” “your kidding? Right.” “No but can see your resigné” “ugh oh ok, it doesn’t have much on it”

“Looks here like you didn’t finish college and you’ve only worked at arby’s. but You can work as a customer at a store.” “Look I have experience, so just hire me as your assistant.” “Look I started from the bottom for my store so you should for this company.” “No I have kids and a husband so just let me.” “Look I was thinking about hiring you but here we like to be kind so now I’ll have to let you go.” Lucy screamed of anger and threw everything off the desk “security please handle this woman in my office.” Then Lucy never saw Roxanne again.
