MY KPI IS HOW MANY VP NUTS I SUCK IN A FISCAL YEAR AND MY LAST THREE OFFICE CHAIRS COMMITTED SUICIDE
grizzled mainframe sysprog clacks the big red button and turns the old warhorse off for good. she pats it fondly, picks up her coffee mug, and leaves

retirement is boring and lame, so she interviews for intern positions at tech startups

she gets hired at a place where the oldest there is her grandkids age

nobody knows what to make of each other at first, but while the team is working on a tough issue she pipes up with a new idea that might just work. everyone is somewhat taken aback, but with nothing left to try they do it, and it works! yay!

the team begins exploring a new high performance programming environment called “assembler” and she starts learning server side javascript frameworks

great success for everyone!

alternate ending:

just as the team starts to celebrate getting the thing working, Finance walks in.

“if you want to keep something take it with you when you leave today. we havent paid rent for six months and theyre padlocking the place at 11 pm tonight. the last paycheck you got is the last youll get. catch all yall on the flip side.”

he then takes the giant 4 handle espresso machine and piles it on to aeron chairs and wheels it all to the elevator, whistling “whistle while you work” the whole way

our herone looks fondly at the team, laughs, and says “lol. see you later shitlords!” , gets her coffee cup, and leaves.

A virus outbreak where people poo poo uncontrollably when they see advertising. A thriller of economies and societies on the brink.

Making ads as a monster would be horrifying, the fuckers are everywhere
