Untitled (for now)
Murray Feiss was always the black sheep in the family. He was always told to be like his 5 siblings, but he would purposely do the opposite, to his parents’ dismay. His parents put all of the children through school, and while 5 of them went into what would be considered “realistic career paths”, Murray decided that he was going to go into game designing.
He never heard the end of the verbal onslaught everyone dished out to him. It didn’t stop him though.
During one holiday, he and the rest of the family got together. Everyone was griping about how much they hate their job, saying that it was too dirty, too painful, too loud, and so on. Murray thought it would be a good idea to speak up from out of the crowd.
“I love my job.”
Everyone stared blankly at him, as if to say “how dare he interrupt?!”. Then one of his brothers said, “your job is why you’ve never had a girlfriend.”
Murray became silent. He can’t argue the truth. He did love his job, but everyone around him got married and had kids, and he’s never even had his first kiss. To have his brother make him realize that reduced him to tears, but lit another fire under him.
He has his job, now it’s time for him to find someone to make him truly happy.
(Not finished, I know, but I’m tired, lol)
