# (in the main office)
[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Yves was saying they're all
running scared in the Paris office,
managers stalking the corridors
laying people off at random...

[Jaakko]
So how did he get
made team leader?

[Nils]
He'd been hiding from the
new bosses, so they didn't
know anything bad about him
and he came out on top.

[Panel 2]
[Ginny]
Hang on, there's an email coming in...

[Email]

Dear Peon,
Due to the current economic
climate, MegaGloboBank UK has
been placed under the partial
control of the government.

[Panel 3]
[Nils]
Oh damn. They took the bailout.

[Jaakko]
You know what this means?

[Nils]
Yeah, they're going to make us...

[Email]
Since systems administration
will be handled by government
infrastructure teams, your
position has been made redundant.

[Panel 4]
[Jaakko]
Phew.

[Nils]
Yes! To the pub,
first round's on me.

[Ginny]
Huh? We've just been sacked
and you're celebrating?

[Jaakko]
He thought they were going
to keep us on and make
us be civil servants.
