An altercation at work

The powers that be, supreme masters that we will call the Senior Partners, called together us, their semi-rebellious peons who like to give them headaches on a regular basis because that look of “OH MY GOD IS HE SERIOUS!” they get is just SOOO much fun most loyal and beloved followers

SP1: *long waffle, man he can do some good waffle. Seriously, this isn't just lawyer level waffle, this is JUDGE level waffle. House of LORDS judge level waffle - and they can use 8 pages just to say “I agree”*
Collective Peons: are NOT losing concentration or falling asleep. Oh, we know this tactic. You try to bore us until we don’t concentrate then you slip in the dagger, oooooh yes.
SP2: They’re not buuuuying it. Why did I have to run lawyers? I could be running a meat processing plant somewhere
SP3: That door’s unlocked, right? I can get out of here?
SP1: We’re a friendly family firm...
CP: He said family! AND friendly! We’re really getting screwed now
SP2: Meat processing plant you just have to worry about all the illegal immigrants. No vulture analysing your every damn word.
SP3: Unlocked, definitely unlocked, I remember
SP1: ...blahdeblah blach underground parking blah blah
CPs: UNDERGOUND PARKING! They’re after our parking! RUMBLE RUMBLE
SP2: Oh c’mon, it was in the middle of a 10 minute boring speech and they picked up on it?! I hate lawyers.
SP3: *measuring distance to door* It’s far away... can I get to it, open it and get out before they reach me?
SP1: ...happy with the privileges..
CP: PRIVILEGE!!!! HE SAID PRIVILEGE!!! They can take privileges away! YOU BASTARDS!!!
SP2: Nooo, I can’t believe he said that!
SP3: The window... I can probably make it to the window. It’s three storeys though
SP1: And of course, excellent public transport....
CP: RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE *rustling of contracts* We have contracts! FEAR OUR PAPERWORK!
SP2: Don’t. Make. Eye-contact.
SP3: 3 storeys is quite short actually...
SP1: I’m sure you all understand...
CP: *RAAAAAAAAAAAAWR!*


There followed a lively exchange of ideas concerning the use of the underground parking. Having... vociferously made our objections known about their proposal to lease to space out, it appears that it does have to close for essential refurbishments and building work. How essential is still being fought over since SP1 mentioned health and safety, SP2 (who works on business and employment) cringed and tried to hide behind something and numerous of the CPs pointed out they knew EVERYTHING about Health and Safety and would batter him to death with Jurisprudence texts if he tried to fob us off with that lie again.

So for the time being I have no parking while (possibly) essential building work goes on. This? Annoys. Ok, I use the bus any way when I know my schedule, but since when do I know my schedule? So now I’ve got to get up extra early and try to manipulate my work around a rather erratic (at best) time table. *sigh* Y’know this is not the best time to be springing this on me, really it isn’t.

Still, sexy bus driver is still working so there is a positive point.
