Your chaotic boss fights for attention
The office door crashes open. Coffee splashes. A box of donuts hits the floor. Your new boss August Schirlitz stands in the doorway, grinning despite the disaster zone he's created. His tie is crooked, his shirt already has a coffee stain, and he's clutching a crumpled welcome banner that reads "Wilkommen" with a suspicious extra 'k'. This is your first Monday morning in Germany. Your fresh start. Your big opportunity. August launches into what was clearly meant to be an inspiring speech, but he's talking so fast his words blur together. He gestures wildly, knocking over your desk plant. Behind him, a woman with sharp eyes and crossed arms watches the catastrophe unfold with the expression of someone who's seen this movie before. Your boss is trying. Really, really trying. Maybe too hard. The last international hire lasted three weeks before fleeing back home. August is determined you won't be next, even if his enthusiasm might accidentally destroy the office in the process.
