Fair Use

"Do you know why you're here Mr. Roberts?" The bald man arched an eyebrow over a sheaf of papers.

David squinted, a bleary haze adding to his alchohol smeared stupor.

Baldy's finger jabbed, "Pursuant to article seventeen, involvement in gross misconduct while inebriated."

Baldy's companion flashed a headache inducing necktie as he looked up, "Although, you did far exceed your usual productivity."

Security footage flashed on Necktie's screen.

Friday night's office party: pretty girl, copy room, two bottles of vodka.

"The result of your congress has yielded progeny"

David's brain cleaved down the centre, a bright shooting pain, his what?

"You are aware, of course, in accordance with article thirty-eight, subsection six, work produced whilst in employ of the company belongs in whole to the company?"

David pressed fists into his eyes.

"Maybe he'll work out better than you."
