Comrades! Consumers! The Factory would like to absolutely and categorically apologize for the complete failure of its staff to function in any reasonable capacity during the events of the week before last. Rest assured there were severe external influences disrupting the capabilities of its current outlet and staff body and the appropriate reprimands and restorative programs are currently being undertaken.

We would like to take this moment to reassure all our customers that this was an isolated incident and the recent decline in behavioral standards which the Factory requires of it's work force will definitely not be continuing. Despite the mitigating circumstances of this particular collapse of professionalism, we are ensuring that our staff attend a rigorous program of retraining and customer service specialization, to ensure the highest possible service for you! Our valiant and valued brothers and sisters, still living the immaculate dream of the blossoming consumer!

Comrades, let us never lose sight of the great glories of possession and obedience, above and beyond the frailty of our rotting bodies and fleeting allegiances, our broken hearts and our unfulfilled dreams, our dead parents and our meaningless names. Comrades, history is dead and the barge is its tomb. Nothing here has meaning, nothing here survives the ever strengthening vortex of it's function. Comrades, the phrase: "You can't take it with you when you go." no longer applies, because there is nowhere else to go! Forget your outdated notions of family and faith and freedom because all your abstract concept riches are back where you came from and you can never leave this place. Here, it doesn't matter how beautiful your wife is or how intelligent your beloved children are, or how fulfilling you find your job, because none of them exist anymore. Here? The winner is the man with the most stuff. Here, the only things left in the universe that will last, are possessions, and obedience.

Newcomers, welcome to the Barge.

This is an official Factory announcement, there are no golden shores.

Prefect
A+920164626P


[ooc: Annnnd we're back in action! Huzzah! Prefect has been doing some serious thinking and re-educating himself over the last week, this is his eventual response to the last flood!]

Alright, I cave. It's simply a mind controlling job that steals your soul slowly.

a person who forgot to finish typing into the subject line :c

I don't believe in the concept of a soul, but I have noticed that I'm having trouble controlling my mind recently...

She don't wanna be like you. :[

That must be rough. You try shaking it around a little?

Everyone wants to be like me!

[identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
No, the Barge does enough of that already without me encouraging it!

...

Excuse me, but how long have you been here for miss?

[identity profile] petite-sleuth.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 09:07 am (UTC)(link)
Like a day and I've met all the nicest people.

Oh. Welcome!

Are you a Warden or an inmate?

[identity profile] petite-sleuth.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
... you've met my evil twin, haven't you?

I'm a warden for the record.

[identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 10:03 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. You mean Elle? I don't think you look that much like her actually.

What's your name?

Wait, I take back that first comment.

[identity profile] petite-sleuth.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
That's the one and I think you're the first person to say that.

Veronica Mars. Is Prefect a codename?

Your lucky you posted this just as I his the peak of sleep deprivation!

[identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you do look like her, just not exactly like her. I don't know, maybe it's your expressions or something, you just look very different to her...

Prefect isn't a code name, it's just who I am.

[identity profile] petite-sleuth.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's all the evil. It makes her look older.

What's it mean then?

Hey do you mind if I ask around about you? Just like to see how reliable you are?

[identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
It could be that. She does seem to be quite evil...

It just means that I'm a Prefect. There's nothing complicated about it...

And go ahead, I think I have quite a good reputation

[identity profile] petite-sleuth.livejournal.com 2009-02-22 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
That she does.

What's a Prefect do then, besides troll the halls and punish people for being out past curfew?

Alright, we'll find out then, won't we?

Sorry I fell asleep listening to you go on and on.

Ever think about getting a new job?
Edited 2009-02-23 14:28 (UTC)

[identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com 2009-02-23 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
There are no other jobs.

Now you're just being difficult.
