Now, I hope you've all seen the TV Show Clocking Off, about a load of people who work in the same place, and each episode showcases parts of one person's life. Well, you'll get it anyway, what I'm doing is the same sort of thing, but with FOG. This one is about Tony. Here goes....
EPISODE 1: Tony's Morning
Tony stormed into the SR Offices. "You will not BELIEVE the morning I've had."
"No, I wouldn't actually," Ali looked up from his paper," considering the fact that your working day starts at 8am."
"Look, I've got an explanation, okay? First of all, I woke up at 6:30am, like I always do. I stuck my hand out to try and whack the clock, to stop the alarm, and I ended up knocking the damn Lava Lamp off the desk! It's not working any more, would you believe it?!"
Ali yawned, "So you broke your lava lamp-boohoo-it's no reason to be," Ali looked at his watch, "4 hours late."
Tony grimaced. "There's more. I got up, had a shower, and went to get dressed. I had a shirt, a jacket, some socks...but no trousers. I looked in my wardrobe-no trousers. I looked in the Ironing Cupboard-no trousers. I looked in the dirty clothes basket-no trousers. I even looked in my wife's damn knickers draw, and still no trousers!"
"So, what did you wear the..." Ali's voice trailed off as he saw what Tony was wearing. Bright green shorts, with little palm trees all over them. Ali sniggered.
"Snigger all you want, matey! So, I got up, missed out breakfast, and ran out to the car. I got in, and turned the key. The engine started and then died. It went on like this for a while, until I saw something smoking from the hood of the car.
I got out, and took a look. And some...I dunno, some gadget was completely buggered. I don't know a thing about cars, so I left it, and went to try and catch a train or something.
Tony sat down, and looked at the servers. They were struggling with something.
"Dan2K1's posted! Arrrggghhh!!" Tony slammed his fist onto the table, and sighed heavily.
"So off I went. As I ran along, some teenager decided to trip me up. I got up and chased the little *AHEM*, but he turned and threw something hard at my face. Once I'd recovered, I found out that he'd thrown a tin pencil case at me! It was a South Park one-I don't even like South Park!"
Ali choked on his coffee.
"I finally got on a train, and due to lack of sleep, fell asleep on the way. I woke up to find I myself at the end of the line, in some god-forsaken town, that had been invaded with Ants! Red Ants! They crawled all over me and bit me hundreds of times!"
To make him feel better, Tony logged into Ant's area and changed his tagline to, "Tony stomps on Ant!"
"I caught a bus, and walked for a couple of miles to get here. On the way, I fell in a ditch." Tony turned, to show that his whole back was covered in mud and other...stuff.
"Oh well, you're here now," Ali looked at the screen, grinned, and turned to Tony, "There's another FOG Rebellion. The Notables are threatening to leave, and the Chat Forum has been invaded by argumentative newbies. You'd better sort it out."
Ali began to laugh as all the colour drained out of Tony's face.
