"Sir! The supply sergeant says where-do-you-want-your-damned-aspic?"

*snerk*

He managed to avoid actively insulting the man, but he was in an evil mood by the time he checked in with his own commanding officer.

*son of snerk*

*gnaw*

=P

The errand-kid amuses me. I'm not sure if the run-together-words are him trying not to insult all these officers but still actually pass on messages, or he's just that overworked.

'We get bonus if we finish early!'

' . . . We get dead if it explodes because we skipped the component checking. No bonus for j00!'

'Subordinate monkeys, why are you not ahead of schedule?'

'Him!'

'Hi, boss-monkey. Yes, boss-monkey, I will take personal responsibility for any delays. (That's what signing my name on the work-complete order means, stupid boss-monkey. I'm military, not bureaucracy. ARGH.) Yes, boss-monkey. . . . . . Boss? Why can't we arrange horrible deaths for the civil servants?'

'Because if we do WE get to handle ALL the paperwork. How's it going?'

'I made 'em run tests on everything before we poured the gelatin. I'll probably be getting electrocuted in my bed later for costing them a bonus.'

[coastal_physics]

oh dear... he hires people like him.

*amused!*

I love it. Not someone I'd wanna work for, but amusing to watch from a distance. :D
