Mr. Thompson Is Ticklish

Added 2022-07-21 16:00:07 +0000 UTC

Our office have a weird tradition: there is a desk with one of those renfaire stocks assembled on it in the storage room, for locking someone's feet. Every time a new boss is hired, or someone gets promoted to, we throw a party and bring it, place it in the center of the office and lock the new boss on it. Then, we remove his shoes and attack his soles, tickling them with everything we have: pens, feathers (if someone somehow have them) and even some old electric toothbrush we have stored to be used on these occasions. We call it "preventive revenge for when we get angry at the boss".

Mr. Thompson, our new boss, wasn't "one of us". He got hired from another office, but was all excited to try our little tradition, because "noooo, I'm not ticklish, I'm a big man, tickling is for kids", the famous last words. After hours getting tickled by everyone in the office bare feet, because the drunk boys decided his feet needed some air, I think he'll think twice before joining any tradition from an office he doesn't know...
