logan's coffee run...
i want to do a parody-cross between Logan's Run and Office Space.
[post-apocalyptic office utopia]
All workers have an office with a window view of a lake. The only day people work is Wednesday, and they get to select their own hours.
There are no project teams.
There are no meetings.
There are only free Krispy Kreme donuts, and fresh-brewed, catered Starbucks coffee.
Logan has achieved full desktop management and an end-to-end secure computing environment...as a result, he gets promoted to management...
...but in this world, when an Individual Contributor becomes a manager, a Job Crystal is implanted in their palm. The crystal starts green, but as the manager ages, the manager's Job Crystal shifts from green, to yellow, to red. When the Job Crystal glows red, they are given an attempt at Renewal during an event known as Carousel. If they fail to Renew, they get to start back over as a phone support monkey on the consumer side. Sometimes, before Renewal, they try to run to another department, where they hope to remain managers. Those who attempt this are called Runners.
Logan will attempt to run. But, as those who do escape find out...
There is no Sanctuary.
