“Mr. Timothy Bell. I have been reviewing your performance recently.”, Wright said as I entered the room. “I’m not too pleased with your recent performance. You still have a chance to redeem yourself. If you can pick up the slack throughout next week, I’ll overlook your failures.””Failures?”, I questioned.”Failures? Including, but not limited to: your several tardies, the broken navigational system, and the malfunctioning engines.” Those had happened several weeks ago, I think. But that didn’t seem to matter to him. “I would advise you to take this chance, Bell. You are dismissed.”
I hurried away to the generator room. If Wright wants me to work harder, that’s what I’ll do.
