He's this close to having the heads of his staff roll. How hard is it to get a presentation done in 2 days? A presentation that will cause them a huge account, and yet his staff just stares at him, frozen.
"What are you all still doing here?! Get back to work!"
His staff scramble back to their work stations, papers rustling and keyboards tapping away to come up with a presentation that they've already done but did not pass the standards of their boss. Some moan loudly, saying their plans are ruined for Friday night drinks. He glares at them one more time before going back to his office, slamming the door behind him.
"You should at least order a pizza for them."
"They don't deserve any pizza."
"You're making them stay longer than usual. Again. Don't you think some food will make them a little less likely to strangle you?"
"Shut up, Lumos."
"Make me. Oops, nope, scratch that, no, Richard, wait...!"
Along with the darkness was the silence that he needed. At least for now. He turns on his computer for some light, one that doesn't nag him to death.
