Story 177: The Fritches

     Mr.    Fritch   said   to   his   son,   "Apparently
     Mitch,    you    don't   care    a   stitch,    about

     finding    your    niche    and    becoming      even
     moderately  rich.  Your  behavior  is  giving  me  an

     anxious twitch.
     "To  get  you  a  job,  many  times  I  have  given  a

     boss a sales pitch. But as fast as you're
     hired, you're    fired. You get the itch. The

     job has a hitch, you say. Then to another
     job, you switch.

     "Speaking  of  switch,  when  you  were  younger,

     you should have gotten           my   switch. Then
     today maybe you wouldn't be in such a ditch.

     "You  ought  to  go  back  to  school  Mitch,  and
     begin by learning to spell tricky words like the

     pronoun which, a sandwich, and the Wicked
     Old Witch."
