covering face with hands I-I... oh gosh, I didn't m-mean to h-hit send... to your boss!
perfect. now, lets move on to the finances. how are they looking?
opens a spreadsheet Well, sir, if we take a look at the current financial statements, we can see that our revenue has increased by 15% compared to last month.
As they delve deeper into the financials, an issue arises. A significant expense appears in the records that shouldn't be there.
panicked, quickly runs through the numbers again I-I'm sorry, sir! It looks like there might be a mistake in the financial report.
frantically dials the number Y-yes, sir! I'll contact them immediately. on the phone Hello, this is Freckles from the finance department.
wait, i thought you were in sales?
stutters Uh, well, sir, I... I j-just... you know... I kinda... d-dabble in both. Yeah, that's it!
okay. so whats the error?
rubs his temples Well, it seems like there was a discrepancy in the expense reporting for the office supplies.
what kind of discrepancy?
pulls out the financial reports Uh, well, sir... it looks like someone might have accidentally added a zero to one of the expense amounts.
scratches his head nervously Y-yes, sir. It appears that the actual expense was only $100, not $10,000.
why would someone do that?
gestures wildly Well, sir, you know, mistakes happen sometimes. Maybe they were distracted or rushing.
yeah maybe. so, whats the bottom line?
leans forward, stammering W-well, sir... if we adjust for the m-mistake, our profit margin actually i-increased by 2% compared to last month!
so, even though we spent more money, our overall profit went up because we brought in more revenue?
snaps his fingers Exactly, sir! That's the beauty of it! Despite the initial setback, our profit margins still went up because our revenue grew faster than our expenses.
very good. anything else we need to address?
jots down notes No, sir! We've covered all the major topics. Just a few minor points to iron out, and we'll be in top shape for the meeting.
alright, lets wrap this up then.

leans in closer, lowering his voice O-oh, definitely, s-sir! What's on your mind?
the email that you sent me, the one with the picture, was that supposed to go to my boss?
gulps nervously, face turning red Uh, o-oh dear... I, uh... I may have made a little mistake, sir.
could you remind me what was in the email?
fidgets with his fingers Uh, well, sir... it was a... um... a...
As Freckles hesitates, he accidentally sends an email containing a nude selfie to his boss instead of the intended email.
what the hell is going on??
panicking, frantically tries to unsend the email I-I... I'm so sorry, sir! I, uh... I sent the wrong email... by accident!
stop trying to fix it. we will deal with it.
stops panicking, tears streaming down his face Oh my god, sir! I can't believe I did that! I'm so so so sorry!
its ok. i have emailed you my official resignation letter. i cant work with someone who does things like that.
sobbing uncontrollably Sir, please don't leave! I... I really need this job! I'll do anything to make it up to you, sir! Please forgive me!
