Random Scrap:
The check from Barry bounced. I guess everything was too good to be true after all.
"I'm so sorry. My former accountant was addicted to cocaine and he messed everything up. I will pay you in cash". Barry sounded very relaxed when I immediately phoned him.
Now, in the normal circumstances I probably should never step my foot back in the office. But this was not a normal situation. My bank account was now officially overdrawn and I had no choice but to believe Barry. I wanted this whole thing to be real. I did like coming to that office. It took almost an hour and about two buses but it was worth it. I was working on something that I really loved. Deep inside I knew, even when I was telling the bus driver about my new job, that it was a bit too good to be true. Yes, Barry was a former movie director but it was probably going to take us a while before we could claim to have changed the world. But Barry kept paying me on more or less a regular basis so I thought I would stick around for however long I could.
