"Is this a joke? I need scenic overview shots of the hiking trail", my manager stormed into my cubicle.
He sat on the chair opposite to me with his flesh bulging out a bit on the sides.
"I hike here every weekend and I sent my favorite spot", I responded surprised.
"4 legs, rough skin, open mouth, smoke, green fur."
"The image scanner app concluded that?"
"Yes. Did you upload a picture of an insect?", he asked.
"No." I swiped through my pictures in cellphone and stopped at an amazing shot.
"You get the best sunset view here", I responded.

Entertaining story. Ah, the perils of relying too much on software!
Dear Evergreen,
That was quite a mental image of the flesh bulging out the sides. Nicely done.
Shalom,

I'm guessing he had the photo upside down.
Like Rochelle, I saw the bulging flesh. :) - Russell

Had a hard time getting past that bulging flesh, but once I did I found it well worth the read :)
