English 113-102, Short Story 2, "The Cask of Amontillado" Impunity?

            In "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edger Allen Poe, impunity was mentioned when the narrator wanted revenge for Fortunado's insults.  In the story the main character used impunity to describe his enjoyment of causing Fortunado to suffercate or suffer overall for the actions Fortunado caused the killer.  I can relate to the killer's impunity but not to the extream of death.

         Working at a retailer as an associate has it's advantage and disadvantage.  The easy thing about the job is the amount of knowledge required is less, don't have to deal with rough customers most of the time, and the work load might be less stressful.  The down side is the work hours, pay, or supervisors.  So, a higher up manager has a lot of power and tends to abuse it when he gets the chance. 
        
          The manager got their good times and bad times, but when you are stuck with a idiodic supervisor there isn't much you can do except suck it up, and do the job.  I as an annoying employee, complained and got the manager off my back, and filled with impunity I laughed in my head repeating to myself he has no more right to be retarded(excuse my use of language, it was not intended to disrespect anyone).
