190 Near Disasters

[cal_sitter]

Apartment Action (first half)/Accidental Video (second half)[Niko's sleep becomes restless after midnight. A light sheen of sweat gilds his olive-dark skin and dampens the strands of hair that fall against his cheek. His hand tightens convulsively around the hilt of the knife he keeps beneath his pillow. Fine tremors of tension ripple through

I swear I didn't teach them how to do that.

[cal_sitter]

Can you teach them to keep a reasonable schedule?

[captainshort]

They're cats, Niko, not people.

[cal_sitter]

They can learn.

[captainshort]

I can suggest it at best. But not now. I don't have time to deal with the cats today.

[cal_sitter]

Neither do I. They're Robin's and Cal's problem until I come home. Possibly until this time next week.

[captainshort]

I know what you mean. Too many people took the day off yesterday, which is unacceptable. Do you realise how much red tape can build up over a day?

[cal_sitter]

I have employees refusing to work extra hours or give me the paperwork I need. I have as much an idea as you do.

[captainshort]

Obviously I didn't appreciate Julius enough. I'm probably not going home tonight. Why in the world are your employees refusing? Having everyone work lessens the load for all involved.

[cal_sitter]

They want vacations.

[captainshort]

Now? We're nowhere near a holiday!

[cal_sitter]

Do they really need breaks? Isn't it preferable to work straight through and be done?

[captainshort]

Tell them you'll discuss a break when they get their work done.

[cal_sitter]

Don't you think I did?

[captainshort]

I think you weren't being firm enough if they're still arguing.

Kyle's threatened to bar me from the club. Have you had anyone threaten to lock you out of your office?
