CAREER CHANGE, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

Agent AFK

No meetings. No missions. Just one dependable chair after hours.

VOLUNTARY REASSIGNMENT

Terms Accepted

At 6:03 PM, Agent AFK stopped answering assignments and accepted a quieter post. He occupies the same plastic chair, keeps both feet planted, and contributes a stable horizontal surface when required. Management has not approved the transfer. Management has also failed to move him. The chair appears comfortable with this arrangement and has filed no objection.

SEATED SINCE 6:03

Chair Duty

He remains seated until the room develops a better offer.

Approved Forms

Three assignments remain within tolerance. Each requires minimal travel, limited conversation, and a nearby wall outlet. Performance reviews are conducted from across the room.

Seat Occupant

Provides weight, silence, and a convincing reason not to stack the chair.

Lamp Associate

End Table

Accepts one mug, two folders, or a very small crisis.

Field Placements

Different rooms keep making the same mistake: they assume stillness means availability. Agent AFK lets the paperwork collect, angles his square head toward the floor, and waits for everyone to recognize the new department.

Waiting room placement — 01Waiting room, after waiting became the assignment.

Domestic placement beside a lamp — 02Domestic placement with excellent lamp adjacency.

Break room placement — 03Break room coverage, entirely without conversation.

Leave the agent where he is.

Furniture has seniority now.
