Small Places : Nick L Belardes [42 of 128]

• Kira: "a..." I speak slow as if to help: "A... what?" But that does no good. She suddenly bolts to Milt's office and slams the door.
• Mike: "What do you think they talk about every time she runs in there?" Me: "Maybe she can't form complete sentences in there either."
• Vishnu walks up and looks at Milt's closed door. "Who's in there?" he says. Mike and I: "Kira de Frito." Vishnu: "Why?"
• Me: "We don't know." And so this is the corporate world: incomplete sentences, mass miscommunication, closed-door meaningless meetings.
• I need a road trip. Vishnu: "Ahh. I need a graphic for our new website that never launches." I feel put out.
• Can't he see I'm surfing the Web and chatting? Along with Buildicon's old website, Vishnu works on a new company
• website that was supposed to be launched a year ago. It’s like the space shuttle. Every time they think they find a loose tile,
• the launch date is scrubbed for six months in order to procrastinate. By the time we launch the new site,
• Buildicon will be ready for a new design on top of the old design and the new design. Vishnu stares.
