ALFIE: I just got a call from the auditors! Our spreadsheets are a total mess!
JIMBO: I'm on it
JIMBO [[on the phone]]: Hey, 35! How are ya? It's Jimbo. How's life? How're the fractions? They grow up so fast, huh? They'll be integers before you know it. Listen, remember last April? We put you in that ledger that went national?
JIMBO: Well, we're in a bit of a bind. Some yahoo threw in a rookie and how our columns don't quite balance. ...yeah, it was 31. I didn't want to say anything, he's still prime and all. But it's a bit of a fiasco.
JIMBO: Listen, '5. You think you could do me a solid on this? We'd put you right up front on a major invoice. Yeah. Unit Price. You'd be a multiplier. BIG job. That's why I called you. Thanks, '5. You're a pro. I'll dial you in. See you in Excel.
JIMBO: It's all about who you know

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
