Futility! A fiction
Dear friends
I am pleased to participate in the daily challenge of @mariannewest, Friday's message: futility. Continuing with Mary's adventures, she set out to provide solutions to her company.
Despite the advanced administrative processes that Mary performed with the support of the office, there were still tasks that seemed to her not consistent with the present times. These processes were already in the field of futility since they did not provide useful and relevant information for the company.
To solve this situation, it was proposed to work on a project to update the information platform in order to eliminate them.
After completing the project, she presented it to those responsible for the company who congratulated her by granting a special bonus.
She upon receiving the payment told them:
"Wow, I didn't think that after improving administrative processes by removing useless things, I would receive this substantial payment."
(to be continue...)

@felixgarciap way to go, Mary. My oldest daughter took a job and got rid of a lot of useless things that cost the company money but she did not get a raise. She did get "job well done".
I think that is normal. You get paid to do the job. Perhaps Mary only lives from bonuses?

@wakeupkitty I took it as Mary was surprised to get the bonus.
@myjob I am not saying she was not surprised but the way she responded, the words used...❤️
@wakeupkitty I see what you mean, words can be interpreted differently by different people but we can see each others point.
@myjob A big problem too is we translate and do not have the native speaker feeling. ❤️
@wakeupkitty so true
Have a great weekend @felixgarciap 🙏

It feels as if Mary is a stupid cow as soon as she opens her mouth.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
@felixgarciap It is possible. Happy Sunday. ❤️
Well, since we don't know for sure what the "pecial bonus" was all about, Mary can also be sarcastic. Have a good weekend, everybody
