“That’s the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard.”

The good doctor was standing beside the autopsy table, on something of a stool so that she had better reach. The assistant, on the other side, was just looking at her strange, eyes wide behind the protective glasses, mouth agape under the surgical mask. "If that's true, then he should be fired immediately! Who would even think of doing that with a cadaver... It's not just illegal, it's.. immoral.. and.. gross.. so.. so gross!"

The doctor looked up from the autopsy, after sewing the incision closed. "Do not get me wrong, it is vile, but you did ask a question about his departure from the practice. I am positive that the authorities will deal with it soon enough, as well." Setting the blade aside, she looked at it a moment longer. "Though something tells me that the authorities will be the least of his worries."

The assistant, blankly staring, removed his mask, as they began to wrap things up. "Why? Do you think the cad-.. the victim's family will get involved?"

Smiling, the doctor shrugged. "It is hard to say, but maybe."

Jessup drew the short end of the stick when he took the job. After being laid off from the lumber yard, he desperately needed a job. What he found in the want ad section was a janitorial position in a grocery store. The paychecks were half of what he was used to but they made even going against the bills he had.

Due to his lack of seniority with the company, oftentimes his first and last tasks were to clean the bathrooms. He never minded the cleaning aspect of any job. So long as no one was in the bathroom, he was given permission to stick an earbud into his head and drown out the overplayed pop music.

Tonight was New Year's Eve, the clock tells everyone that there are fifteen minutes until the store closes and twenty for his shift to end. Jessup waited for a woman in the bathroom to vacate. If he hurried, he could get home with just enough time to watch the ball drop with a can of Coors Lite.

What he walked into, as the woman hurried out and rushed through the exit, was enough for him to say fuck the paycheck. Nothing could pay him enough to clean that. Nothing like that should have been possible with as high as the sinks are in those six stalled bathroom areas. Not to mention the atrocious odor that assaults his face like a punch. His head is thrown back over his shoulders, to savor the cleaner air.

Jessup sought out the manager on duty, his smock at the ready, crumpled and bleach blotted,

“I can’t do this any more.”

Out of that forsaken building that housed unspeakable - if not outright morbidly impressive - acts, Jessup places a hand on the hood of his car and loses the American chop suey he had for lunch. In the parking lot's light, the brown mess on the pavement revokes what he'll always remember nestled in that sink. That thing that was too solid at first to fit through the holes of the drain but around the sides, it thinned.

The worst part? He got a series of text messages from one of his coworkers the next day. They read:

don't even knw y she did it, j
gale took over 2 clean the bathroom
said u could def eat off of every toilet seat n the place
WTF Lol
