"You must resolve these issues as soon as possible!"
"The governor personally called me, and this is also different from what you promised me."
"You have three days. If you can't resolve it in three days, do I need to tell you what will happen?"
Over the phone, the director, who had expressed his appreciation and agreement with the manager's decisions the day before, now did a complete about-face, his tone full of threats.
The manager, holding the phone with both hands, could only try his best to explain, "Recruiting takes time, and we have already recruited some people..."
"I don't want to hear that; that's your problem. I don't even need you to tell me when work can resume."
"You only have seventy-two hours!"
The call was abruptly hung up, and the manager slowly put the receiver down, his face looking ugly as he sat in his chair.
These damn bastards!
His angry curses could be heard by everyone outside the office, and each person had a different expression on their face.
