HOW NICE FOR YOU, DEAR
Modifications by Gwen Lenker
Ever since you moved out on your own, your mother has been worried sick
about you. You've tried to explain that you have a good job at Busywork,
International (with a dental plan and everything), but Mom can't seem to grasp
just what a hardcopy communications expediter does for a living. So, you've got
permission from your boss, Mr. Dedwood, to let your Mom come into the mailroom
and watch you collect envelopes, as long as she doesn't get in your way.
When you have successfully completed your task in the mailroom, you will be
promoted to a new position. The job titles you may achieve, and their
corresponding duties are:
Shift Lead - Sharpen your pencil at every pencil sharpener in the office.
Quality control - Look through every magnifying glass.
Supervisor - Set your own priorities.
Branch Manager - Rubber-stamp everything in sight.
Vice President - Shut off all the computers you find running "Leather
Goddesses of Phobos" instead of Lotus.
If Mom interferes with your work at any time, though, Dedwood slaps a pink
slip on you, and it's bye-bye, baby! You will, however, be allowed three chances
to rejoin the company (at the bottom, of course), and start working your way
back up the corporate ladder.
Merely escaping from Hell was a piece of cake compared with dodging your
mother. Mom really means well, which makes her much more dangerous than that
evil old Devil. After each two levels, Mom gets a little bit faster (see the
new variable, SPEED, in line 800).
You will sometimes need to trample the potted plants in your way to get
where you're going, but Mom won't do that - she's too nice.
And don't forget to answer the phones! They're what keep you hopping!
