Jealousy At Work

dizain Good grief! in our office - a predator lurking about without saying hello. Lack of discernment veiled its character - pale green with greed and a jaundiced yellow. Spite voiced hate through this parasite-fellow. A new employee makes department head, my talents ignored, I was seeing red! Dissing a "freshmen" who deserved a break, I was obliged, with envy overfed to bid spite "Goodbye." Romance was at stake.
