A place in the world
Scene 3: Redundant Manager finishes her work and parental duties for the evening and sits down to read her emails. She has a message from a librarian friend responding to the Seth Grobin link she sent him earlier. She also has messages about her reading group and the deputy chair of the community committee she's involved with, about an event she's helping with next weekend. She's a little surprised that the mayor hasn't sent her regular email about local initiatives. She has a text from a guy she knows from the gym who might have some work for her. She considers a colleague's suggestion for her company name, at once so obvious and so effective. Then she goes to the pub for a gossip with her friend, and asks after the barman's kids. She goes home and does the washing up with her husband.
Redundant Manager realises that she might be redundant as a manager but not as a person.
