Departments Keystroke and Juggler Were Forced to Listen
to Anthony’s Snake Speech
“I try to
run this operation the way Jesus would run it,” Anthony informed those within
the scope of his supervision. “Or have
it be run,” he added, thinking that perhaps if Jesus was actually around he
wouldn’t concern himself with anything so mundane as supervising such an
operation. But then, thinking further,
Anthony realized that this second thought only made him look bad by suggesting
that his involvement with the job was beneath him. “Because I want to be like Jesus,” Anthony
summed up, collecting himself. He was
about to proceed, to tell the dozen people gathered in the tiny break room to
hear his words of encouragement exactly how such Jesus-like application to duty
was being implemented, when Frisco, one of the coordinators, put his head in
the door.
“Anthony,”
he said, “I want you to give this same speech to some of the other operations
in the building.”
Well,
Anthony was all for that. Any chance to
make his circus-like presence known to a wider range of people. In the event, however, Anthony did not
tell the other departments how his supervisory method was theoretically based
on that of Jesus, but rather told them that, inversely, their own departments
were being run in a “Satanic” manner.
“The snake
has entered the hearts of your supervisors,” he declared.
“I think
it’s all that bizarre 1970’s cologne he wears,” Ned Slipshod, medical advisor
to the company, posited. “It could be
poisoning his brain.”
