Cubicle Conundrum - Day 25

Q: Well I’m finally done.

N: Eh?

Q: With my module. I have a review after the weekend on Monday. I’m done. Now for a nice long weekend!

N: Great news.

Q: Yeah. I’ve been working on this for months.

N: That’s nice. So.. Monday huh?

Q: Yup.

N: Monday, Monday, Monday.

Q: Yeah.

N: Hmm.

Q: Okay what about Monday?



N: Oh it’s err probably nothing.

Q: ….Just tell me.

N: When were you informed that your review would be on Monday?

Q: Yesterday. It was supposed to be today, but they advanced it. I suppose no one feels like working on a Friday.

N: Well you DO know what that means?

Q: What does it mean?



N: They clearly went behind your back and did a preliminary analysis on your code and realized that it is quite sub-standard in certain aspects which cannot be overlooked during a review. Hence, they found it fitting to give you the weekend to try and sort things out.

Q: Wh- what?

N: You DO know they have access to your code all the time?

Q: Well yes, but-

N: Then it’s settled. Never mind. You have the weekend to work on it.



Q: Is this another one of your schemes?

N: I could reassuringly give you an answer, but you will realize that whether or not what I said was out of true intentions, there still exists a tiny probabilistic chance of me being right and that is a chance that you cannot afford to take considering the magnitude of this review.



Q: I hate you. I really do.

N: You’re welcome.
