Management Theory [Tuesday, April 21, 4th period]

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

"It is time for your final examinations!" Yzma cackled over the sound of crashing thunder. She was really pulling out all the stops for the last class, yeah.

"Today you will encounter a series of scenarios that managers so often face! " she told them. Except that no sane manager ever would, no.

"If you answer correctly, you will progress to the next question! If you answer incorrectly, you will drop through a trap door and be forced to fight an aquatic animal! And then move on! Assuming you are not eaten, of course."

She clapped her hands together and the Danger Room shifted. "Begin!"

Puuuuuuull the lever!

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

For the last time!

Re: Puuuuuuull the lever!

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"GODDAMMIT!"

What would you know it was the very last day of class where Chuck picked the wrong lever.

Re: Puuuuuuull the lever!

[once-a-traitor.livejournal.com]

The lever was pulled and down Edmund went. He returned a short time later soaking wet and trying not to look like he was fishing a starfish out of his pants.

Agnes glared at the levers until the one she was about to pull decided to be the right one.

Which meant that she'd at least START the final dry.

Yesssssssssss! One last fight against something with weird squidgy bits before she got to hop on the roller coaster and gooooooo!

Scenario #1

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

You are hosting a Very Swanky Dinner Party and the caterer you've hired has served spinach puffs. You hate spinach puffs.

Do you:

1) Fire him immediately, in front of many people! Possibly with screaming!
2) Kill him quietly!
3) Kill him quietly and remember to hide the body!
4) Turn him into a squirrel!
5) Suck it up and eat the spinach puffs!

[OOC: Every answer but number three will get you dunked.]

Re: Scenario #1

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

For some reason Chuck hated caterers today. So this would be why he was especially cruel to them during the test and picked number three.

Re: Scenario #1

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

5.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Re: Scenario #1

[shyest-eyes.livejournal.com]

Hinata frowned at the test, but answered number 5.

Her shriek was distinctly not amused as she got dunked.

Re: Scenario #1

[ashockingbitch]

1!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" SPLASH.

Re: Scenario #1

[bitchprince]

Arthur answered 1.

He hit the water. Wrestling the creature? Both mind-bogglingly terrifying and oddly satisfying.

Re: Scenario #1

[always-damp.livejournal.com]

Toby chose number 5 and nearly drowned himself at the sight of the beast.

Re: Scenario #1

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

Helen knew what she would do, but she also was smart enough to know the answer Yzma expected. Therefore... the answer was clearly three.

Re: Scenario #1

[withoutverona]

Romeo tried to pick the answer Yzma would want; she couldn't be so petty as to kill over spinach puffs, could she?

She was. His answer of #1 sent him splashing into the tank.

Re: Scenario #1

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

Killing seemed too easy, which is why Dōjima picked four. Public humiliation was worse than death, and totally fitting.

Her shriek as she hit the water was definately disgruntled.

Re: Scenario #1

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle frowned slightly; her ideal option involved firing the caterer and then subtly working her magic to make sure that he never worked in this town again without making it seem so obvious that she was the source of it.

...without killing anyone, thank you. The only thing being killed would be his business.

Number One was close enough.

Good thing Turtle could swim.

Re: Scenario #1

[once-a-traitor.livejournal.com]

Ed chose #5. Down he went. That starfish was back.

Re: Scenario #1

[finding-x-dream.livejournal.com]

"I actually quite like spinach puffs," Agnes answered. "And even if I didn't, I'd just NOT EAT THEM. Besides, the question is completely moot if the caterer didn't know you didn't like themmm... AAAAAAAGH!"

Splash.

Scenario #2

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

Whoops! You have been caught staging an eensie weensie little...coup.

Do you:

1) Grovel like a groveling thing!
2) Kill the emperor quietly!
3) Kill the emperor quietly and remember to hide the body!
4) Turn him into a squirrel!
5) Run away!!!!!

[OOC: Again, every answer but number three will get you dunked.]

Re: Scenario #2

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Well obviously three was the right answer.

Man, he kicked ass at this class.

Scenario #3

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

Gasp! You've been fired!

Do you:

1) Suck it up, find a new and better job and get on with your life!
2) Kill your boss quietly!
3) Turn him into a flea. A tiny little flea. Then put that flea in a box, put that box in a larger box, mail that box to yourself, and when it arrives....HIT IT WITH A HAMMER!

[OOC: ...yup. Go with number three.]

Re: Scenario #3

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Chuck was kind of stuck on this one because, really, a flea? What the hell was that all about?

Then he remembered the answers to the previous two questions.

So he picked three.

Talk to the TA!

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

One last time!

Re: Talk to the TA!

[always-damp.livejournal.com]

Toby was very damp after the final.

As always.

Talk to Yzma!

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

Also one last time!

Re: Talk to Yzma!

[the_merriest]

"Thank you for letting us fight so many nifty monster-things," Rikku bounced.

There had been four today. That was awesome.

OOC

[saveonpostage.livejournal.com]

You guys have been so much fun. Yzma will not miss you at all (or, let's be honest, remember you have names other than "hey you") but I will!

Re: OOC

[once-a-traitor.livejournal.com]

You give good Yzma. I'm sad to see her go! *clings to her*
