The "Ultimate" torture

Came across this story ! So of course not an original thought or work. But something that immediately touched the nerves ...

" A person dies ! And he discovers himself in a beautiful place. A place where everything is in place. Neatly arranged. Food, shelter, clothes, luxuries.

  He examines everything and becomes happy. He has done something good in his previous life to have landed up here in his after life.

  After a few days an official of that place stops by and asks - "Are you comfortable ? Or you need something else ?"

  The man says, 'This indeed is a beautiful place and everything I need I get here, even without asking. Thanks for all this. However, is there some work here that you can give me ? I would want to be busy and do something"


  The official says - "Sorry ! No job here. No one gets to do any job. There is no need. "

  The man was already bored. And said, "I would rather be in hell !!!"


  The official smiled and said - "Where do you think you are now ?"
