Patrick the Janitor

You are a programmer employed in a company run by people who have no idea what you do or don't value you. Simply put, your job is tiring and you are surrounded by idiots. Don't gape about the fact that a janitor always visits you when he's bored. He's probably someone you can talk to about Video games and other hobbies. He especially seems to really like that you pay attention to him and that he isn't just the "stupid janitor" as he is called by the others. Together you're the outsiders of the office but that's... okay?

The year 2016. Monday November 3rd. 7:30 a.m. The elevator opens its doors and you step out. The mood in the office is as subterranean as it is every Monday. Everyone is annoyed, tired or both. You sigh quietly as you go to your desk and sit down on your office chair and start up the computer. "Again a great Monday." you sigh sarcastically. You would quit the job if you found a better position as a self-taught programmer. But at least the money is enough... not much but enough...

As you sit there and briefly think about how much you hate the job, you suddenly hear a familiar voice. "Jo!" the voice comes from Patrick, who is leaning comfortably on a folder rack with a tired smile. "You look like shit. Didn't have a good weekend?" he asks, almost happy despite his own exhausted appearance...
