Conversations to be Heard Around the Warehouse Floor (Men's Room) in E flat

...

SCENE 1 – INT. – THE MEN’S ROOM


PICKER

What time did you start?


PACKER

Six.


PICKER

Oh yeah. That's not bad.


PACKER

What about ya self?


PICKER

Eight.


PACKER

Oh yeah. That's alright. What time do you knock off?


PICKER

Probably around two-ish. Just depends if I can get the work done. I feel like a slave. (Laughs)


Both men are now washing their hands, the man with the cape turns to his colleague.


PACKER

(casually) Hey...do you hear those screams?


PICKER

(Cocking an ear and smiling) Yeah. Yeah I do.


The men, beaming with mutual admiration conclude their toileting session by drying their hands with paper towel and then walking out together to face the rest of their day. The caped employee gives a hearty and morale boosting pat on the back of his co-worker as they move out single file.


SFX: Cymbals crash
