Ariel Sharratt and Mathias Kom - Monitors

Monitors

Snow falls on the parking lot
Cheryl drops her keys
She hums an Inbreds song
She's worked here for too long

Kevin traces phrases on the foggy break-room glass
Thinks about the time he Xeroxed his ass

Oh, the boss is in Bermuda
Somebody keyed his mobility scooter
Kumar from HR says there will be hell to pay
But this is already hell, and no one ever really gets paid

Stacy and Melissa miss the days when they were temps
They can't get away with the things they could back then

But Carl says well at least the old floor supervisor's gone
He was a Nazi, even though he signed emails with kiss emojis

Quote, this is not the future for me
Scrawled on the bathroom stall out of sight of the CCTV
In R&D Dr. Lee tests the virtual office assistant
He gives it simple commands, but it never listens

Goddammit, Gary mutters under his breath
As he reads out the memo the whole office was accidentally sent
Now a hundred goddammits pepper the beans as they spill:
The division is closing and moving to Brazil

Oh, Katie's knocked over her chair
Kirsten and Kristen are throwing paperclips everywhere
The virtual office assistant shuts down the surveillance system
Monitors make the most beautiful sound when they smash if you know how to listen
