Two Turntables And A (Headset) Microphone
“WOOOO! LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!”
Gillian fired up the turntables and started playing her twelve-inch club remix of “Get Ready For This”. The crowd jumped to their feet, writhing around on the dance floor, sweating and grinding on each other as the strobe lights pulsed and confetti fell from the ceiling. She cranked the volume, turned on the rave siren, and set off the pyrotechnics, sending the crowd into a frenzy.
Then, she shook her head, adjusted her headset, and logged into her phone and computer. Gillian was back in the real world and feeling a bit queasy at the thought of another eight hours of customer service. As far as she was concerned, the answer to “Y’all ready for this?” was a big, fat HELL TO THE NO.
