Some lady, goes by Winona, showed up in our building's lobby to clock in for the day. When I asked her who she was, she was shocked that I "forgot the face of someone who's been working at the company longer than I have". There's just one problem: there's never been a 'Winona' in the employ of our department.

Don't worry, Slime Bob is beating her up as we type. Fraud tried to get us to pay her the equivalent of the CEO's pay.

I'm authorizing access to the emergency snack supply I keep in my lab fridge. You do have to brave the giant spiders to get to it, but we're making good progress with them; they've only bitten three people today.

Dammit, Back, we talked about this. If we get rid of the spiders, not only is that months of work down the drain, we'll have to repay the considerable funding given to us by the client. And that's the best-case scenario. We really do not want this guy to Sauron - er, sour on us. It's not Sauron don't check the invoices.

Since when are we in the business of making giant spiders for evil overlords? I sealed up the basement for a fucking reason and you decide to open it up again to do unethical genetic engineering!

Unethical genetic engineering that paid for your Christmas bonus last year and doubled the contents of your IRA this year, so unless you want to give that back, button it.

Am not. Bob would have fed you to the giant spiders weeks ago. He tried, in fact. You're welcome.

Fuck it! I'm shutting it down! And before you try to take away my bonus, the jokes on you. I already spent it all.

All employees be advised that BackSet is attempting to shut down an authorized TropeCo project through unauthorized means. The lab is in lockdown. No one gets in or out.

Ahem. Anyway, there's something at the bottom of the no. 3 lift shaft that I'm not allowed to know about. I've been transferred to a different department, and the no. 3 lift is now out of service until further notice. I don't know how much longer I can trust this company. Anyway, someone should get in touch with management about the small civil war that appears to have started over the bio-lab. Anyway, I'm off to get the cache from my desk before they lock me out again. My cans had better be there.

So... one of the Spiders bit someone... should we keep an eye on them and make sure they don't turn into Spider-Man or something. Wait, are these things venomous?

Of course they're venomous. Equally of course, we've made a bunch of antivenin. Send em on down to sickbay, they'll be fine.

Seriously, why did we make these? We do Tropes not genetic engineering! We didn't even start the Giant Spider Lab, it came with the building (which explains why it was so cheap).
Speaking of, I spotted Bob building a skyscraper-sized Pumpkin Chucker. I think he wants to launch the building again and we had enough trouble finding a new building last time.

Wasn't the spiders. They haven't left the lab, I have video footage to prove it. Someone (Bob) is playing silly buggers.

16/09/2022: Security still haven't gotten back to me, and now management and management is asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions.
