Another day, another slog of paperwork and meetings. Such is the life of an office worker. At least, that was the case for Miriam. It wasn't glamorous, but it paid the bills.
Plus, being Wayne Enterprises, sometimes Bruce Wayne himself showed up. She supposed that was neat.
Better than seeing Ms Cates, at least. She was the epitome of a bitchy boss and Miriam dreaded stuffing her resentment down for a forced polite smile and a 'yes, ma'am'.
Seemed she didn't need to worry about the boss today, however, as she was busy chewing out another worker.
Ah, Jervis Tetch. Poor guy. From what little she knew about the man, he didn't seem to cause any trouble. She could respect that. Just be quiet and get through the work day.
Jeez, Cates was really going all out with this verbal beating... Was she incapable of saying anything positive ever? Did she get off on berating others?
Whatever the case, Miriam was getting annoyed. Peeking her head out from her cubicle, she made momentary eye contact with Jervis before retreating back into her cubicle.
Ms Cates was coming her way.
With a big stretch in her office chair, Miriam's legs tripped Cates over, sending her plummeting to the floor.
Feigning innocence, Miriam bolted upright and rushed over to help her boss off the floor.
If she was lucky, no one noticed her plan this.
