Short
Employment Stint
By Denny E. Marshall
As Leroy digs up the fresh
grave, the doctor stands beside him with a dolly. Times have been tough
lately and Leroy has been unable to find work.
He met the doctor at a bar, both of them having too much to drink.
While at the bar, the discussion took an unusual turn when he offered
him an employment opportunity. Leroy did not think he would resort to
grave robbing but the doctor’s offer is too good to refuse. Leroy has
bills that need to be paid. The doctor only wants bodies that have been
buried less than forty-eight hours.
Leroy hears the shovel hit the casket. The doctor jumps in with him too
help break the seals. When they open the lid, both of them freak out
when the corpse gets up and says, “Thank you gentleman.” Then drains
both of their blood.
