4.i.
The Big
Bossman flicked the toggle switch for the security desk to the “off”
position. Then he grinned. That had gone off far better than he had
expected. And the woman with the guns
and the really terrible aim. He couldn’t
have paid someone to be more convincing.
Sure, by virtue of their political careers, Donkey and The Elephant were
trained liars, but any real motivation was lacking. This woman’s rage was palpable, even through
the security cameras; as was her dental profusion. She had to be on his payroll in some
capacity. If so, she’d receive a bonus. If not, a job offer. In the meantime she would receive the very
best of medical care.
All in all, a
successful venture. Corporate Man and
his pathetic Union had infiltrated the building and were
under the assumption that they were unwelcome guests. Now, if only Donkey would behave according to
form, they’d be precisely where the Big Bossman intended them to be.
