An emergency meeting had the entire department speculating that the axe, threatening to fall since last September, was finally going to make its appearance. To an extent, she felt prepared. These days, the corporate life span lasted as long as a spray tan. When she started her faceless position nineteen months ago, she was the victim of a sudden career change at that time too.

Gladys, who mentioned retirement a few weeks ago, wore a wide, pearly tooth smile. Alfred, whose wife just had a baby, was gripping his cinnamon bagel so hard the raisins were popping out.

Life was constantly moving, and to assume in this day and age that no one would feel the effect of the fast paced world we lived in was unfathomable to her.
