"Standardisation of surveillance, security and other types of
closed-circuit camera systems - methodology"

(The dusty poorly-lit sub-basement of a Tallahessee office building)


Have a seat here Mr Matthews

(nervously) Can I call my wife ?

Maybe later if you're up to it

Eh ?

Watch the screen please Mr. Matthews. At all times maintain
a zero angular differential between the subjects in view and
your normal physiognomological orientation

Should I do that instead of trying to keep them upright ?

Please be quiet Mr Matthews. Or we'll give you something to
make you quiet. We can do that you know. We have badges
in our wallets that say so

(aside to co-worker Scott - Damn DrugCo rejects)

OK, Mr Matthews, we're starting the test now. Let go of the
arm-rests please Mr Matthews. Scott, start tilting the camera.

Yup (sigh. Claps hands). Right, let's get that label printed. What

63. 63 stinking degrees for a man's life. What a waste

Think of those who'll come after him Scotty. And the countless
hordes of otherwise unemployable zombies we can keep from
clogging the courts. OK, let's see. "Do not rotate more than 63....

Make it 70

70 ? Scotty, you make my day sometimes. "Do not rotate more
than (giggle) 70 (giggle) degrees from (giggle) vertical"

(tentatively kicks Mr Matthews' lifeless body). I love this job

Yeah. C'mon, burgers, my treat

Maybe after we should go see Mrs Matthews

You're not getting to the top with that attitude Scotty

Thursday ?
