John's Bad Day

First thing in the morning, John slept through his alarm clock and woke up very late. Things didn't get much better for the rest of the day. After he woke up, he went to the bathroom to get a shower, but there was no water came out!! He remembered that he didn't pay the last bill for the water. Therefore, he put on his cloths as fast as he could, and went to his car and started the engine. He was so sleepy since he get used to have the morning shower to refresh himself. However, he drove his car in a crazy way, and he cut most of the traffic lights that he passed through, and that was really dangerous for him and for other drivers too. John at that time was out of his mode and really worried about his late since that was his first time to be late as that much, that's why he couldn't control himself.

Once he reached the car park, he stopped his car right away, and stepped out of the car towards the tower that he work in. He greeted the security and run to the stairs to get his office which is at the third floor. At the stairs, he met his friend who told him that the manager was looking for him at the early morning, he kept running and jumping the stairs till he reached his floor, and entered his department. The department was really quite since all the employees were working in their offices. Nevertheless, he reached his office and found a memo on his disk signed by the manager: " you were not here at early morning, and I am reminding you .. this is your second warning", he took the paper and put it in his drawer with the others. Actually that was a bad sign since these memos are going to threaten his career path if he didn't take care and try to fix these problems.

At the moment, John looked really sad and miserable, and started to clean his face from the sweat since he was really nervous. After a while, he became calm, and started to arrange his documents and classifying them accordingly. But he surprised when he missed one top urgent document, and he tried to find it in many places but he couldn't. After all of the mess that happened to John, he asked himself: " why all of these are happening to me??"

After a hard and tough business day, he left his office, and started looking for a restaurant for his dinner. While he was driving, he saw an advertisement about a lottery. In fact, he thought about it seriously since he used to win in many lotteries before, so he bought a ticket, and said to himself "at least this will make up my miserable day". Actually, John won in the lottery, and he was so happy, so he went to receive his price with excitement. When he arrived the place that he supposed to get his price from, he shocked that he couldn't find the ticket. John laughed with a loud voice and realized that day wasn't his day, and went back to his house after he bought his dinner.
