This story/sketch wasn’t what I was expecting when I wrote the title.
But that is one of those things when you try and write something that way around.
| Donald | I think we took a wrong turning back there. |
| Gerry | Well it all looks very unfamiliar to me. |
| Donald | It all seems so different from how I remember things. |
| Gerry | Yes, it is all so much bigger. And everything so much further. |
| Donald | I wish we could just call a cab, all this walking is killing my feet. |
| Gerry | But we wont find a cab around here. |
| Donald | So strange. New York and I can’t see another person around. |
| Gerry | Well, it is late. I don’t think we will see anyone around here at this time of night. |
| Donald | I suppose you are right. But where are we? |
| Gerry | I’m not sure. We have been walking for ages. We could be anywhere. |
| Donald | Well I know where we aint. We aint at home in bed. |
| Gerry | That isn’t going to happen for some time. I’ve no idea how to get back to the car. |
| Donald | There must be something that looks familiar. |
| Gerry | I used to know this place so well, but now I am just lost. Not a clue where we are. |
| Donald | Let’s sit down and think where we are. Take in the surroundings, we could then figure something out. |
| Gerry | Okay. |
| Donald | Right. To our left we have a filing cabinet marked personnel. In front of me is a computer and a notepad. |
| Gerry | And these chairs are much more comfy than in our department. |
| Donald | Well going by the filing cabinet I would say that we are in Human Resources. So where do we go from here? |
| Gerry | I don’t know. I give up. I don’t think we will ever find the front door. |
| Donald | Last time I ask you to stay back with me and clean up after an office party. |
| Gerry | Last time I offer. I thought you’d at least know the way out of this place. |
| Donald | Hey, I have enough trouble finding my desk first thing in the morning. |
| Gerry | That’s a good idea. Let’s find your desk and retrace your steps back from there. |
| Donald | Hey that’s a good idea. Oh! Hang on. No it’s not. |
| Gerry | Why not. We would find the door. |
| Donald | No we wouldn’t. We would find the broom closet. I slept there last night. |
| Gerry | Oh! Let’s do it for the day before. |
| Donald | Yeah! Now that is a good idea. Can you think back that far? |
| Gerry | Nope! |
| Donald | Me neither. |
| Gerry | Oh! |
| Donald | So which desk do you want? |
| Gerry | I’ll take the one on this side, it looks softer. |
| Donald | Okay mate. Sleep well. We take another look in the morning. |
