"Gangsta" Bear

Today was chaos compared to yesterday. We had to vote for the best looking toy. The one that won in the end was a “gangsta” teddy bear. Then we had to make copies of it, like in a factory. We had one hour to make as many as we could. We decided to split into different departments, one for colouring, and another for cutting and a third for assembly. I was in the colouring department.

Everywhere everyone was stressed. People everywhere with their voices raised, trying to get it exactly like the proto-type. We only had an hour to complete everything, and after 30 min, we hadn’t even finished one bear. My arm was aching from all the colouring, I was really stressed. Compared to yesterday, where everything and everyone were so calm, and it was very quiet.

The “manager” went from station to station yelling at us to get things ready in time. The boss put on some music for a while, but instead of it being soothing and nice, it was just noisy and irritating. When it was soon over, almost everyone started hating the bear, even the creator, who said, “Don’t kill me!”

Finally when it was over, we had made 39 “gangsta” bears. And we were all happy it was over!
