FridayNext crashes into the offices - no one's there yet. She pops her head into UniCorn's office. UniCorn is temping for the second week. Ten weeks to go.
FridayNext: Aaaaaoooouuuuuggggghhhhhhh
FridayNext: Where's everybody
FridayNext: Or more importantly: where's Uni?!
FridayNext: Come to work already!
FridayNext: Aaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
8.01
UniCorn swaggers into the offices, looking cool, calm and collected - as usual
UniCorn: Howdy darling
FridayNext: Where were you?! I've been waiting for like HOURS
UniCorn: 'Scuse me but I'm right on time!
FridayNext: But I took a shortcut and then I got lost and you were not here and here I was and I was all over...
UniCorn: Whoa! Sit. SIT! From the beginning please.
FridayNext: *sighing* I got lost.
UniCorn: How? You've driven that way five times already. Are we feeling mentally challenged today?
FridayNext: *sucking in air loudly* You're so mean!
UniCorn: *smiling her most devilish smile and raising her eyebrows*
FridayNext: Oh....
UniCorn: Maaaah haaaaah!
SILENCE
UniCorn: Bring it! Tell me. Spill the beans....vomit....EWWWWWW!
FridayNext: Right. Puke aside, I'm driving on my bike and then the bike goes: hey, wanna take a shortcut, and I'm like: god yeah, and it says, so turn right and I like...y'know...do that and it all goes smoooooooooooooth and way hey, it's all cooking for me.
UniCorn: Right. So moving on?
FridayNext: And then the road diverges - and spookily enough, I'm actually partly in a wood (maaah haaah, you won't get this unless you're a big Robert Frost fan) - and there's the road ahead of me and then there's the path to the left of me and...
UniCorn: GET TO THE POINT ALREADY!
FridayNext: Shesh....testy! Everybody follows the road ahead. Which do I choose? The one to the left!
UniCorn: Are you mental? For real, I mean!
FridayNext: But it was what my brain told me...
UniCorn: I'm not even gonna comment on that one, hon!
FridayNext: Aauuuoogghhh! So I go on for like 10 minutes and I realise that...oh, I'm lost...
UniCorn: *mumbling* On so many levels....
FridayNext: And I had to stop and take out my map and you know how I hate that!
UniCorn: Because people are of course...here we go again...
FridayNext: They are looking at me all funny. They are! I swear, they do!
UniCorn: Friday....
FridayNext: Yeah?
UniCorn: Or let me put it this way - and you'll like the sound of this. Excuse me, I just need a moment to myself, alright, here it comes, are you ready?
FridayNext: Ready and bursting!
UniCorn: Right: Fffffffffrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidddddddddddddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!
SILENCE
UniCorn: J-Man style, wasn't it? It's his nickname for you, right?
FridayNext: Shut up!
8.45
UniCorn struts into FridayNext's office
UniCorn: What are you doing, are you busy, what are you doing, are you busy busy busy?
FridayNext: *head first on her keyboard, computer humming* Oh god, she's on a sugar rush and it's not even 9!
UniCorn: What's happened?! Are you alright?
FridayNext: He emailed me.
UniCorn: As he should because he has a cover for you, right?
FridayNext: Yeah, but he's so dreamy...
UniCorn: I know. I think he's dreamy and I haven't even met him. Why don't you stalk him a bit to get it out of your system.
FridayNext: Okay!
10.09
Noises are coming from FridayNext's office.
UniCorn peaks around the corner.
UniCorn: Whatcha doing?
FridayNext: *bangs the receiver repeatedly on the desktop* Wha'?
UniCorn: You are a bit noisy even for you.
FridayNext: Stupid stupid stupid!
UniCorn: I'll stay out of it!
12.00
LUNCH
A lot of munching is going on
1.30
A very important meeting!
Notes from the meeting:
2.30
TheBoss realises how ineffective we've been all day.
He waves his arms in distress. Sort of like this:
And then he chuckles on his way back to his office.
Because...
It's summer and not a lot is going on in the offices today
