The Old Man

 

 

The old man in the cubicle -

with his white hair.

 

What about him?

 

Why did they hire him -

 

What does he do?

 

I think he’s in Customer Service, you know…

answering the phone.

 

Have you talked with him?

 

No.  You?

 

No.

 

What’s his name?

 

I think its Larry or Bob…

I’m not sure.

 

I’ve never seen him in the cafeteria at lunch.

 

I think he stays at his desk.

 

Kind of strange to still be working at his age –

don’t you think?

 

I guess.

 

I wouldn’t want to be working at his age.

 

How old is he?

 

He’s old for Pete-sake – look at him.

 

He looks lonely.  Maybe we should talk to him.

 

About what?

 

I don’t know.

 

 

Maybe he’s really one of the owners spying on us.

 

Ya, I’m sure that’s how he’s spending his days… spying on us...

 

 

You’re an idiot.
