Chapter 3: Employment

Page 103

Rico is standing in a waiting room, cold steel-looking and too brightly lit. He's trying to forge his cheering suit into professional attire as best he can, but he's still a cutie. A business robot is working away in the next room.

Rico walks into the robot's room and cheerfully introduces himself, rattling off jobs he's had back on Earth before the robot can inquire about the kind of employment he's had lately. As Rico talks, the robot hovers dispassionately and soon visibly scans Rico with a red beam from head to toe.

Rico soldiers on but the robot cuts him off mid-sentence. "You are acceptable."

The robot hovers over to an arrangements of hundreds of holodevices, surveys them for only a second, and grabs one. It hovers back to Rico before thrusting the device into his arms. "Report at this location tomorrow." Rico is startled and fumbles with the device, nodding quickly.
