unspeakablehorrorSo I recently finished Several People are Typing by Calvin Kasulke which was recced to me by tobermoriansass quite a while back, if my memory can be believed.
The story starts off with the protagonist, Gerald, accidentally uploading himself into a company slack channel. Things only get more bizarre from there. Gerald has a serious problem, but he may as well get some extra work done in the meantime.
There's a promotion at stake, after all.
I spent probably about 80% of this breezy novella laughing. This hilarious corporate horror story ruminates on work and capitalism through the lens of a Slack chat.
This is not a real review as I'd like to do, but I just wanted to get a few quick thoughts out on this story.
