Last night feign and I came up with something like this over IM. I shall call it the "RPJ" You will enjoy it, or not. I came this >< close to making a smiley theatre of it, but after baking for 5+ hours in the sun, it's fortunate that I'm even able to type. I'm just glad that posting doesn't involve any walking...

YOU approach OFFICE, and enter.
BOSS notices your approach, produces PERFORMANCE REVIEW for 20 damage.

YOU wield a BINDER OF ACCOMPLISHMENT for 10 damage.
BOSS wields TPS REPORT DISCREPANCY for 15 damage.

YOU wield FAMILY ILLNESS for 20 damage.
BOSS casts OUTSOURCING YOUR POSITION, requests that you train HABIB for 45 damage.

YOU cast PIE IN THE SKY BULLSHIT for 9 damage.
BOSS casts PINKSLIP. YOU are removed from the building.

YOU enter the UNEMPLOYMENT OFFICE.
YOU equip +1 UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS.

YOU injest +2 CHEAP WAL-MART WINE.
YOU change class to WINO.

Annndd then I kind of run out of steam. I rather like it, even if the execution was a little odd. Feel free to add to it below, perhaps it can be expanded into something truly "epic," heh. A side note: this isn't intended as some kind of mini-rant against outsourcing, so if we can, I'd like to avoid this becoming the place to bitch about it. I just needed something between family illness and fired. Wink
