Ever-Monday Research Facility
Monday already? I swear, it feels like it was just yesterday...Killing someone is easy, but killing an idea takes a lot more effort and disregard for human rights. The Ever-Monday Research Facility used to be a mid-tier corporate structure, where workers went about their daily lives as another cog in the corporate machine. It has now become the primary site of R&D for the Taskforce Monday in their quest to contain Mondays. It isn't Mondays themselves that are the problem, but the idea of just how miserable they are have become a memetic infohazard, leading to billions lost every year in lost productivity and general complaining. To try and figure out the best way to fight against the Monday mood, the Taskforce has created a self-contained office in which it is always Monday so they can study its effect and attempt various harebrained schemes to fix it. No one really volunteers for what is basically Hell, so the Taskforce have turned to unorthodox means of procuring test subjects.
Basically Hell
LET ME OUTAlthough the Ever-Monday Research Facility retains much of its trapping as an office, with endless rows of cubicles, unpleasant lighting, 'motivational' posters, and so on, it is a simulated groundhog day of Mondays. Subjects are put through a combination of drugs and brainwashing so they'll keep thinking that every day is another Monday, while researchers watch and perform experiments.
About 10% of the workers are plants, Taskforce Members sent in to aid in those experiments and observe the herd up close. When necessary, they also remove anyone who's broken through the programming and realized that something is going on.
OMG I laughed out loud reading this!
Success! That was definitely the goal! :D Thank you so much for reading and commenting :D
