After all was said and done, the question remains, would he have done it if he had known it would happen?

One annoying customer too many, I guess. Anyone who works retail will tell you that they’ve thought of it at least once a day. But in most people’s cases it never actually happened. Except in Frank’s case.

Frank didn't know he held such power. Frank figured he was just your average schmo working a dead end job.

Frank didn’t know when after he had mopped the floor and that stupid kid with the mud caked shoes walked in after closing that it would actually happen.

But it did.

You see, Frank didn’t know he was the son of the devil.

So thinking back on that day, all the unruly people he served on a daily basis, the rudeness, the self served-ness, the impression everyone gave that somehow they were more important than everyone else.

Frank was tired. Frank mused that maybe the human race didn’t deserve to exist. He thought “maybe if we destroyed ourselves then at least we can say that as a race we had achieved something truly great.” Frank didn’t know that he held the power to make it so.

So as mankind breathed it’s last and the world was left to the animals Frank blamed it all on one lowly teenager with muddy shoes. Frank thought, “If I had known, would I have ended existence?”

Probably.
