After grinding through hours of fresh annual sales data for the new store branches sprouting up in the remote northern reaches of the UEG Territories, you're pulling double duty—something you really shouldn't be doing, but with the rest of the team burnt out and some even collapsed at their desks from the relentless workload, someone's got to cover.

God have mercy on your soul, because this she-devil sure as hell won't.
