Forge, Focus, Grate


Two workers share the same area: one singularly focused on work and the other a chatterbox. What might a fly on the wall hear?

“Catch the game last night? 

“My cousin has this weird rash shaped like an elephant…

“Did you hear? Michaels got the promotion. I don’t like that guy.

“What’cha working on? Looks complex.

“Why are you grating your teeth? I can hear it from here.”

A pause, then a response. “I’m forging the perfect ceramic engine. One thing wrong and it blows up.”

“That’s awesome! I want to drive the car that baby’s in!"

“Not a chance.”
