New Short Fiction: “Reduction in Force” by Steve Soult

A heartless corporate layoff leaves Gil Schaffer emotionally shattered. A revolutionary memory erasure procedure may be his only hope for salvation, but the price could be greater than he bargained for.

Originally published in the Corporate Catharsis anthology, this is an intruiging and insightful tale of how medical technology might be adapted to help us better cope with some of the more unpleasant aftereffects of corporate life. However, as the tagline suggests: such solutions rarely come without a cost.

I could definitely relate to Gil’s situation and to his decision. I’ll bet many of you can too.
