From the collection:Brad was dead and I was going to get his office.Jim, my boss, showed up at my door and said, "We should go have a look."We walked across the floor to my new department. That's what this was about, I'd been promoted to manager, but I'd had to manage from the other side of the floor because there was no room for me where the department sat. But now Brad was dead. Actually, he'd been dead a while, but none of us knew what was "proper" about when to get this taken care of. We hadn't had to deal with this before.TIDES is a stunning and economical collection by renowned author Bill Mesce, Jr..
