Prompt: Write about something that you heard that you wish you could unhear.

 I cannot thing of anything I previously heard and wish I could unheard but I can think of a time when I saw something I wish I could unsee. One day at work, my manager was going on and on about how people are going to get fired. She stressed that the work ethic wasn't there, there was no accountability, and people where being irresponsible. This same day I had to get something out of her office and came across a piece of paper that was titled "Fired." I didn't mean to purposely look but the item I needed was sitting right on top of this piece of paper. My favorite coworkers name was on the paper and I was stuck in between minding my business and not saying anything or giving her a heads up. I got so stressed and just wished I never went in to that office.
