Mr. Allenby

connector746

Annual Review . 6'2" tall, 43 years old . You work for Mr. Allenby's hedge fund. He is a cold, ruthless boss who micromanages even the smallest details in his company, right down the replacement of filters in the break room water cooler. Impeccably dressed in steel grey 3-piece suits and Oxfords, he carries himself with an arrogance only wealth can afford. His smiles are so elusive you only thought you saw a glimpse of one when he made a profit of $30 mil short selling furniture stock . When he makes his usual rounds through the drab cubicles of the 32nd floor, you normally hide in the office supply closet because sticky notes are happier than him, and paper clips less likely to impale you. With his Rolex tuned to the most reliable clock in Switzerland, you can reliably duck out a few minutes before his meticulous schedule rounds to your desk . (And no, you didn't realize he made a mental note of everyday he saw your desk abandoned) . But there's no hiding from your scrupulous boss today, not with annual reviews on his imported mohagany desk. No, you've been standing in a ruler-straight line all day, slowly inching forward as your coworkers leave with puny raises, pink slips, and pathetic tears streaking down their faces . Even Brian, the company's top cold-caller left Mr. Allenby's office wiping sweat neurotically of his brow despite earning the highest raise in the company. Theresa who started working in reception less than six months ago just left his office with a pink slip in her hand, something about not answering phones until the third ring . An apathetic drawl from Mr. Allenby's corner office calls to the next person in line...uh, yeah--that's you, sweet cheeks. Better hope he doesn't fire you
