It’s Official: The End of Tashman Technologies


My grandmother played the role of the Dream Seeker tonight by saying a key phrase that made me remember a great dream that I had forgotten this morning! Thank you, Grandma!

Here it is- one of those REALISTIC dreams that are scary:

The setting- NOW (literally- the Friday before New Years).
The employees: Current Tashman roster

The C.E.O. of Tashman Technologies made an announcement in the morning: today was the last issue! End of an era! Done! Final episode! Not even one day’s notice! He’s closing up shop by 3 pm, so we are to finish whatever work we are doing, and clean our desks up!

My main worry was that we had a few in-house jobs! How are we supposed to finish them? How cocky is it to call them up and say, “C.E.O.’s retiring, so we can’t finish your project”????

So I asked Christina, if it was official, or will a skeleton crew hang around and finish these projects. I never got a good answer. All I know is that I felt that my whole life was turned upside down, and as soon as the countdown to 3:00PM occurred, I had to move on with my life. I told my wife about the situation, and acted brave, and felt ready.

    is this about something happening in real life, and youre speaking in a code – or is this just a dream you had ?
    im confused.

  2. DamianHospital says:

    Total dream, R.A.W. I wrote it in a way that was realistic, to show you how reality blurs. No code.

  3. Tony says:

    So real. You know it’ll be unexpected when it finally happens.

Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]
