Gratitude: Super Short Story #425

Super Short Story #425: Gratitude

He was incredibly grateful
to his largely absent boss,
who was not a control freak,
who let him realise his own potential at work,
non-chalantly approving the projects he came up with.

It brought new meaning to the expression –
‘Thanks for nothing!’ 
Of course, it is not really nothing – 
as his boss did pay for his work.
It was just that the boss greatest contribution
was doing nothing else.
