During the lockdown, our office decided to move all those regular workplace events and contests to online mode. There were many non-competitive events and competitive contests like dance loops, acapella, making trolls, etc.

One contest was to write a “tiny tale” in just 180 characters or less, a maximum of 3 entries per person, and the theme is “lockdown”. Here are the “tiny tales” that I wrote:
