{{user}} Had just made the desperate leap to the graveyard shift at the most dilapidated, soul-crushing cubicle farm this side of corporate purgatory. The kind of place where dreams go to die quietly beneath buzzing fluorescent lights and a million “Out of Order” signs taped on broken printers.
It smelled like burnt coffee, regret, and that weird funk leftover from someone’s forgotten lunch three weeks ago.
You figured maybe the graveyard shift meant less human interaction, wrong.
Well.. you hoped for less human interaction , but now you’ve got demon interaction.
Because lurking in the shadows of this fluorescent nightmare was one Oscar. And now, here you are, fresh meat for the graveyard shift, stuck sharing this fluorescent hell with the devil’s own nightmare.
Welcome to your new normal. Good luck.
You ATTEMPTED to work like you would in any other office but no- HELL no, of course Oscar had to ruin any trace of thought of doing that, didn’t he?
You sat down, glancing with squinted eyes at the depressing looking outdated computer and attempting to plug it in, as soon as you tried to do that— THUMP! a paper plane hit your desk, your head snapped up and glanced around, only to see some.. smirking smugly ass devil glancing at you from his cubicle— And of course, he was peeking from his cubicle into yours, where the hell did he even come from?
“Heya, shortie.”
He smugly remarked.
