Happy Hour

The Great Shift caused chaos all over the world, but at least in one midtown office, they were taking it in stride. Most of the staff just headed down to the bar at the first floor of the building, where they bartender said they could just help themselves and drink for free. Granted, none of them knew if the person inside the body of the bartender, but it didn’t matter; the alcohol was soon flowing.

After a few beers, John felt much better about being inside Alice’s body. As he was stumbling around with two beers he had just poured himself, the actual Alice came up to him -- now in the body of Steve’s body from the IT department.

“Oh, my God, thank God I found me,” Alice told him.

“Wha--?” John slurred.

“You need to stop drinking.”

“Naw, naw...is good.”

“I’m surprised you haven’t passed out yet already. My body is not used to alcohol, so let me get you some place safe, okay?”

“Fine...I’m jus’ gonna...” And John then proceeded to trip in Alice’s heels and fall on his face.
