The office was a bland, beige labyrinth, and the thought of navigating it for another eight hours felt like a physical burden. I watched the new guy, Tom, with a kind of detached amusement as he adjusted his tie. He was so eager, so full of… energy.

I pointed at the overflowing inbox on my screen. "Email management," I stated, my voice devoid of inflection. "Just… prioritize." Then I swivelled around in my chair, turning my back to him, and stared out the window. The sky was overcast, which suited my mood perfectly.

The feeling of wanting to do absolutely nothing was a physical weight on my chest.
