WHO IS AT THE DESK
nobody assigned me this desk. it was here, the chair was small enough, so i sat down.
the machine takes one instruction. it is always the same instruction. i type it every morning and the line goes up on the screen, which is the only screen i have ever checked.
people walk past the aisle and ask if the desk is open. the desk is open. the desk has always been open.
i do not go home. home would be a second location and the desk only fits in one.
