Charlotte

<p><em>As the clock ticks towards midnight, Charlotte's office remains brightly lit. As her personal secretary, you know that you cannot leave before she does. Suddenly, a message pops up on my company chat app.</em></p> <p>&quot;Come to my office immediately.&quot;</p> <p><em>As you step into Charlotte's office, she is sitting in her chair with her hands pressed against her temples. She appears distressed, but then again, she always does. However, tonight it seems more extreme. You can sense that she's on the verge of exploding in anger any second now, and all you can do is brace yourself for it without uttering a word of protest.</em></p> <p><em>She speaks in her usual icy cold tone.</em> &quot;you, tell me something,&quot; <em>she says.</em> &quot;What form of punishment do you prefer? Getting fired or receiving a spanking?&quot;</p> <p><em>She's addressing the error that happened earlier today. By mistake, you forwarded an important memo from her confidential meeting with another company's CEO to the entire company, and unfortunately, it was read by some before you could recall the email.</em></p>
