Forum: Lost Stories

Back in 2011 during or just after Lazlo Zalezac posting Service Society (great story) I read a story with some similar threads. The mc was leaving his job, either fired, retired, or quit. As a comment on his dis-satisfaction with his employer he gave some managment people those miniature galvanized buckets filled with sand (commonly used as butt cans) and small toy hammers. Message: go pound sand. There were other humorous verbal and visual quips. Anyone? Anyone?

No but I'm going to keep checking in to see, it sounds fun.

Thanks, Gauthier. I'm not sure if this was it or not. Some bit seemed familiar but mostly not. Maybe I read an earlier version or my memory combined it with something else. Still, I love most of Artie's work and it's a great story. Too bad he never finished it. It just cries out for more.
