Workplace?

No, I actuallt don't see what your saying. Your words confuse me, except for confuzzled.

We can write both in email format (the one we've been doing right now) and regular format (classice RPG format, y'know from you characters perspective), however the whole point of this SB is to try email format. I'm asking which one do you want to do for the meeting. Just talk about it in email or write it like normal RPGS.

I'm fine with either, just want to see which one you guys want to do for the meeting.

Confuzzled

[[Fox, IG Alex banned non-work related e-mailing. Which is kind of hard to put into effect if you're not monitoring e-mails 24-7 anyway, so pretty much the characters are just taking advantage of that. And he's the boss, he can do whatever he wants anyway.]]

Okay, sorry. I just didn't understand, but now I do.

oh, that means I can't anymore join in? well, that's okay.

Did we decide which format for the meeting? And Alexander should probably start it because he called it, he's the boss, and he knows what the meeting is for.

Ya, so I guess we'll just let the person who plays Alexander decide which format they want to use.

That'd be NepoGirl. She's the one that started this.

No, you can still join yuriiko, we just started. There's enough girls as guys so you can be either.

Meeting

Alexander sighed as his workers shuffled into the meeting room, all looking them down, avoiding his watchful eye.

He knew that they were scared. Last time they had a meeting, someone fell out of the 50 story window. The janitor picked the wrong time to come in while he was breaking the news to Cara, a young amateur wrestler, that she was fired.

When all the workers were seated around the large mahogany table (Alexander being in the front) he coughed slightly and started to talk.

"As I said before, there will be no more unrelated work emails. Some of you," He shot a dirty look at Kam. "Aren't listening."

"Wait, how do you know that I was emailing?" Kam shouted, standing up, outraged.

Alexander arched his delicate brow. "You just admitted it."

Kam slouched in his seat.

"Now, next week, we have our annual..."

As I walked into the room I exchanged a quick word with Delila McCarry. She wasn't really my favorite co-worker, but she was nice. I calmed my anger down as Alexander started to speak.


~Sorry this is so short.~

Delila

I always hated meetings. They were so boring, and could be more dangerous than I used to think. I decided to get the seat farthest from the window.

Finally, we began.

Alexander talked about our emailing, and how he knew that we weren't exactly following his little rule. That didn't surprise me. He knew everything that went on in this building.

Then we started talking about big events that were coming up. This was my favorite part. Our staff loved to party, so we had a lots of parties. That's why I enjoyed listening to what's coming up. It was fun to see what we came up with this time just to have an excuse to party.

"Now, next week, we have our annual Christmas party." Alexander said. Everyone smiled. We were all really excited. Our Christmas party was probably my favorite. We always did a lot of cool things.

It was silent for a second before Alexander began on another subject.

Anthony skidded into the meeting room and into his until-then conspicuously empty seat, ignoring the dirty looks sent his way with an ease borne of long practice, just in time to hear the dreaded "annual Christmas party". His head met his palm as he groaned. Joy, just another reason for people to get distracted and not bring in their articles on time, which meant more work for him running after them and cleaning up the messes.

"Is it really necessary?" His whine went mostly unnoticed amid the hushed chatter, though he did catch a few amused glances sent in his direction. Figured.

He might have been glaring at the table. And grumbling under his breath. Stupid parties. How on earth was he supposed to do his job under those conditions?!

Jeanna took her usual spot in the meeting room, right by the window. After talking about the emailing, Alex went on to talk about the Christmas party. Her attention suddenly went zwap as she tuned in. She loved parties. Alex started going on about something boring, but she cut in.

"Excuse me," Jeanna said. "But what's this years theme?"

Alex sent her an annoyed look. "What do you mean?" he asked.

"Well, last year all the girls had to wear red, and the boys green. And the year before was centered on Christmas tree ornaments."

"I don't really care," Alex said. He looked around the meeting room, still looking annoyed. "What do you want it to be?"

Delila

"What do you want it to be?" Alex asked in annoyance. I raised my hand, but didn't wait to be called on before speaking.

"I think we should all dress up like reindeer!" I shouted. Everyone laughed.

"Ya, and Alex could be Santa Clause!" Gail said through her laughter.

"Ooh! I'll be Rudolph." Jeanna said.

After the laughter died down, Alex spoke again.

"Okay now, it's time to be serious," he said, though we could tell he had thought it was funny. "There are more things to talk about. Like how there's a big contest coming up."

He looked around at each of us.

"The annual magazine competition. I think we should all try our best to win this year."

We all got serious. Each year, we would come in second for 'Best Magazine Over All'. We all wanted to win this year.

"Turn your work in on time, and don't get distracted by emails."

After that, he dismissed us.

Okay, tomorrow I have to leave for camp and I'm coming back on Thursday. Can you guys do me a favor and tell me what happened when I get back???

Dude, is anyone expreiencing a 'Parse Error'? Because, I can't PM anyone or reply or start new works or threads. The only reason I could type this was because I used quickreply.

Subject: Christmas Party

I'm not deaf people. I can hear Kam and Delila screeching about how everyone should dress up as reindeers and how you're plotting to get me to wear that riduculous santa suit Anthony stuffed in his desk.

I know you're helping them Anthony.

Remember, so all of you can shut up, that the party will be on christmas eve and will go until the first person strips. Yes Kam, I'm talking about you.

There is no theme, but all of you can piece somethign together when your DONE with all your articles.

Just because we have a party, doesn't mean we shouldn't stop working. I still want that award and all of you should be working.

And don't forget about the Secret Santa. Everyone already drew who they were going to buy for and everyone has to pitch in for food.

Get to work and Gail, please stop whining about your article. Yes, I'm not blind either folks.
