[There's no guest chair in Tieria's Westerley office - the other employess at Internal Affairs tend to avoid him as much as possible, and he certainly doesn't invite people to linger around for idle chatter. Several cardboard boxes of printer paper betray the room's former role as a office supply storage closet. Tieria, who ranks only slightly above the photocopier in the minds of most of his human coworkers, sits on a swivel chair in the center of the room, cocooned by a half-dozen holographic computer monitors. Their cool white light reflects off his glasses, giving him an alien appearance.
But then again, Giovanni Rammsteiner isn't quite human himself.]
As you're aware, the Company is in the process of conducting a full internal audit and employee performance review. Your service to the Company has been... satisfactory.
["Satisfactory" is high praise from Tieria, but he says the word with evident displeasure. There's a small part of himself that resents having to look at one of the Company's successful hack-mod projects when his own program was defunded as a developmental dead end.
That's petty reasoning, though. Emotional. Human. Tieria would never admit to it. So he swallows his reflexive dislike and glances up at Giovanni.]
Some employees have been... less than satisfactory, though. I'm authorizing their immediate termination.
