You have every right to be practically hyperventilating. Step closer, yes
that's right there is a wall behind you. We are going too talk. Am I
making things uncomfortable for you? I can see a small bead of sweat
gathering on your brow. Are you gulping? You're an airforce Colonel for
gods sake you should be able too put up with a little pressure. I'm not
going too kill you, yet. But I am very very angry. Do you realise how mad I
am at you? Do you realise how frustrating things have been getting? Maybe I
should be saying some of this aloud. Taking a breath. Get it over and done
with girl. And make sure he knows your serious.
"Just once, just onetime I would like to know that your actually listening to what I have too say"
OK that was easy enough, give him a moment. A chance too give an explanation. He's thinking. Don't strain the pea too hard Jack. Are you getting the message. Are you actually listening now or do I have the same attention I got in the brief?
"When did it become base rules for a subordinate to treat their senior officer in such a manner?"
OH MY GOD. Did he just say what I think he just said? Did he just call me SUBORDINATE? Does he want too leave this elevator alive? I mean ok I am but how dare he? OH MY God. I have nothing too say. I'm shocked. He had better be good at reading body language. Are you seeing the disgust in my face Jack that was a low blow, too low. Your gonna pay big time for that comment, just be so glad you didn't say it in front of anyone else or things may have been uglier. If you wanna play like that, fine. You want respect, I will give you respect, Colonel.
"I always listen too what you have too say in a briefing or otherwise Colonel. I give you that much respect. And quite frankly I would like too get the same. Sir"
Yes I did say 'Colonel' and 'Sir' in that tone. You've heard the tone before. Just be glad I didn't say Jonathon that would have gotten you good. You are not the only one who can be sarcastic Jack. Am I gonna get an answer or will I have to beat it out of you. You are running out of time and I am running out of patience. Moreover, I'm running out of excuses for keeping the elevator busy this long. Come on quick smart Jack, I couldn't have thrown you this long.
"I'm sorry?"
Did you just ask me if you should be apologising? You have no idea do you? Of course you don't, why should you? According to you, everything is just great. That's what you gonna say right?
"Do you have any idea what's going on here Jack?"
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Oh you have an answer. Lets hear it.
"Sam do I ever listen too any of the mumbo jumbo spoken in briefings?"
OH that's it, I cant be doing this anymore. For crying out loud Jack.
"Is that all my work is too you? Mumbo jumbo?"
I really have no more patience in me. And I really don't like you at the moment Jack. I have things to do; not that you care. When did you stop caring? Ah that's right as soon as we decided to hell with the regs lets go for it and see what happens. Well here we are. Do you like where we are Jack because I certainly don't. You know what, for once I have nothing to say too you. That's right I am turning my back too you.
Damn elevator, start up again will you. Thank god, I'm in the lab this afternoon. He wont follow me there. Yes, people outside; leave him with his thoughts, give me chance to calm down.
