Comment from BethShelby
This is funny in a morbid sort of way. How inconsiderate of someone to die and create all that extra work for his co-worker. Now accounting is the perfect place to put him. The know all about dealing with paperwork. Its what they do. Very nicely done flash fiction.

Well, Mystery Author. It is funny in a weird way. You did a good job with this unique little story. The ending was unexpected. The image is a perfect pairing, too. Best wishes Respectfully, Jan

Poor Charles. No one wants extra paperwork though. I laughed, sorry Charles, but you did a great job with this and i Hope you made a lot of other people laugh :)

This story is a good example of lateral thinking problem-solving. You should be promoted for "passing the Chuck". A clever story that I enjoyed very much.

Comment from LyndaS
Ha! Loved this. You wrote a well structured, hilarious and complete story in 80 words. Very visual as I pictured easily this woman dragging a dead body to Accounting. LOL! Well done. Have a great weekend. Lynda

Great humour! You have rightly posted or moved or transferred the man from Sales department to Accounting department; well said, well done. Wish you best of luck for the contest.

Comment from Mary Hollingsworth
Writer you did get a chuckle out of me because that was funny because the emphasis was not even on the person being dead it was on having the right paperwork done at the correct time. Now when you say you had to drag the person over to get the paperwork done that was the straw on the camel's back that broke my tickle box. That flash fiction story made me laugh
