Corporate Man is called in to investigate reports of vile, unethical business practices at Great American Business Company. What he finds there just might destroy him (except we all know the ending to The Tragic Death of Corporate Man so it should be fairly obvious that it can't really destroy him, though it can come close).

Enslaved by the Bonus Whores is an all new Corporate Man Adventure Serial. Chapters will post every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

After nearly a decade of imprisonment, Corporate Man returns to find the economy in ruins and his deadliest enemies in control of all but a fraction of society's wealth. He embarks upon a quest to set right the wrongs of the business world; a task that will ultimately destroy him.

Chapter 115


4.d.
“Oh god.  Here they come,” Donkey muttered to himself.  He sat on a couch in the Jacob Center Tower lobby, positioned so he could monitor both entrances.  The lobby, being situated at one of the building’s four corners, had two doorways at right angles to each other.
His underarms were swampy and his palms were clammy.  Why was he doing this?  Were the imminent gains so beneficial that loyalties to his friends, pledges taken, and oaths of economy sworn, had become valueless?  Or was he just a big pussy cowering under the might of this huge corporation?
It will be worth it he told himself.  To finally make some strides, build a foundation for future reform, be at the helm of recovery, strengthen his position in the party.  To best that goddamned pachyderm.
The Elephant.
That gigantic prick of a man had undermined Donkey far too often.  That egotistical, callous lump of fat.  That money glutton.  Once this deed was done then Donkey would have the upper hand and–
Oh god no.  What was he doing here?  This wasn’t part of the plan.
Across the lobby The Elephant struggled to heft his bulk from his seat.  He adjusted his belt somewhere beneath his swollen sagging belly and lumbered toward Corporate Man and the rest of the Union.
