Another monday in 1984, 6:30AM, you wake up with the sound of Time After Time in your alarm clock. After splitting all the coffee through the kitchen floor you take your Chevrolet Chevette and try to reach your job, again as every morning, the usual 8:00AM traffic jam in Brentwood (Essex, England). However, today is not a normal day, today you have to assist to the global release of the Amstrad CPC, the computer you have been working hard on during the last few months. 8:25AM, finally you can park, two miles away from Amstrad Headquarters. 8:55AM, you finally reached your office, but running those two miles has not been worth at all, your chief is waiting furiously for you in his office, after the release you will be fired. 55 minutes of delay have been enough to forget months of hard working and hundreds of extra hours.This is the end, your resignation letter will be signed with the fury of your kicks. |
