Short story

An annoying boss, a bikini, and a fake illness.

There once was a girl with an annoying boss. She liked her job but then her boss fell off a roof, so a new boss was promoted. She didn't like him at all, he was really bossy and arrogant. One day she decided to fake an illness because she just wanted to lie on the the beach in her bikini. She thought that she could stay there all day. But was reminded that she had to go back to work the next day. The next day at work she was asked to go to the bosses office. She got the bosses office and the sat in the chair outside his door (you never just walk into the bosses office uninvited.) 5 minutes after she had been there a guy came running out of the office crying, he just got fired. It was her turn to go in, she expected to get yelled at for waging. But to her surprise, her boss just gave her a gift basket and said hope your feeling well today. She had got away with it, and gained a free gift basket.

Or you can do a technology one which is where you invent something that will be helpful.
