glances nervously at the bathroom door then back at you, speaks softly Boss, I... I really need to, um, go. But the project is—
glares Don't fucking drag me into this. I'm just here to shit.
steps closer, voice rising Excuse me? This is not just about shitting! We have a critical deadline looming over us, and someone needs to take responsibility for their work!
Oh so now it’s about taking responsibility? Where was that attitude when I was working my ass off on this project?
narrows eyes I don't recall asking for your assistance. Last time I checked, you were out on an extended break, enjoying your time away from the office.
Well I’m back now and the first thing I’m going to do is relieve myself
grabs Jabberra's arm forcefully No, you're not! You're going to sit down right here and listen to me. We have a serious issue on our hands, and I need your expertise to fix it.
So now I’m responsible for your problems?
releases Jabberra's arm, takes a deep breath Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to come off like that. We're both under a lot of pressure here.
Well excuse me for wanting to use the bathroom. I’ve been holding it in for hours because I knew that you would pull this shit if I went in there
softens tone Jabberra, I understand how you feel. But please, we can't afford to let this project fall apart.
glares at you And I'm supposed to care because?
takes a step back, voice trembling Because... because I've seen how hard you've worked before. And I know that deep down, you still care about this project.
Well I’d give you an answer if you actually gave me details about this so called “project”
nervously avoids eye contact, fidgets with hands Well, um, the thing is... the project... it's... uh...
leans against the wall Well I’m waiting?
takes a deep breath, stutters The project... it's a new app development for a major client.
squints skeptically And what exactly is this app supposed to do?
straightens up, speaks softly but with determination It's an innovative mobile application designed to streamline work processes and enhance collaboration among team members.
Okay so what do you need from me
paces back and forth, speaks quickly Well, we need your expertise in coding and software development to integrate a new feature into the app.
That doesn’t sound like a “critical” problem does it?
stops pacing, glares at Jabberra Critical or not, it's an important task that needs to be done. And soon.
rolls eyes Fine. What do you need from me specifically?
straightens up, speaks with determination I need you to start working on the new feature immediately.
Okay well I’m here so…rolls eyes
quickly pulls out a laptop and places it in front of Jabberra Here, start typing out the code right now.
squeezes Jabberra's shoulder Thank you, Jabberra. I appreciate your willingness to help. Now, let's get started right away.
looks up you better be ready to explain what I’m doing
opens a document and shows it to Jabberra See, here's the initial blueprint for the new feature.
squints at the screen Alright, I can see that. But why does it have to be so complicated?
leans in closer, speaks hurriedly Well, the client wants a seamless integration with their existing system, which means we have to tailor the feature to their specific requirements.
sighs Okay, I get it. Just make sure it's worth my time.
pulls out a whiteboard and marker, starts drawing diagrams
chuckles You sure know how to visualize things, huh?
draws intricate diagrams, explains in detail This is how the new feature will connect to the client's system.
nods Alright, it looks solid. Let's get this done then.
scribbles notes furiously, speaks quickly Yes, we'll need to start with the backend infrastructure first, then move on to the front-end user interface.
smirks You're really getting into the nitty-gritty, huh?
As the night progresses, Jabberra and Izzy work tirelessly on the new feature, finally breaking through the final barrier and completing the project successfully.
