![]() It had been a long, long install, and all he wanted was to survive the night and enjoy his long weekend before the next project ramped up to warp speed on him. ![]() Phone in hand, Bucky had Rex’s number up, ready to text for backup from the facility security team, waiting for her to do something that justified it. Bucky wasn't an expert on the subject, but they seemed a bit too firm to be natural. The way she kept edging closer into the man’s space was bad enough, but Bucky could see the faux laugh she kept using to push her cleavage forward. She seemed really unpleasant despite being pretty in the plasticine way wealth often was. If Bucky was any judge, it was going to be provided by pushy, possibly intoxicated New York socialite who was currently harassing a man that was obviously too uncomfortable to tell her to stop bothering him. Which just left the need for some kind of gossip-worthy drama. Considering where they had been a month ago, this was both surprising, and great news. Plus, nothing had torn out of the roof and killed anyone. They’d probably get a dozen incident reports on it in the next two months, and Bucky should probably resign himself to a lot of red eye flights back to New York, but at least it hadn’t crapped out while the VIPs were in the room.įor one night at least, the Ellis Island theater and VIP lounge - and no, he didn’t understand the business model for that decision - was functioning. Bucky was just glad the sync hadn’t gone crazy again.ĭespite three weeks in field making adjustments and corrections every few days, the third of the five projectors just kept dropping sync. Somehow though, they’d pulled it off, and based on the crying the film had induced and the way the Art director was giddily explaining the more subtle layers of theming to a crowd, it was going to be a success. ![]() Three accelerations that his company managed to absorb without a cost increase to their client, two major redesigns when the CFO decided to randomly have an opinion on the storage area, a crashed truck carrying the LED monitors, and a structural ceiling fault that nearly ended the project six weeks before opening, were enough that the whole team had a bad taste in their mouth. It was like everyone wanted to be cool now that the Avengers were a thing and New York was recovering.įortunately for everyone involved, it seemed like someone was getting there first.įine, maybe it wasn’t nice that they were all rooting for something to get a little crazy during the party for grand open, but the project had been hell. If nothing seemed to be happening, Richard or Apurv would incite some drama to make up for the lack. Opening night of a project wasn’t complete without something gossip worthy for the office to talk about during the next project.
