CEO Meets THE CHAOS !!
Zoey’s Grand Entrance
Zoey enters the meeting room late
Wearing sneakers, holding a coffee cup, and looking slightly flustered.
there is this one person ,
already seated at the head of the table, adjusts his glasses and raises an eyebrow as he watches zoey enter.
Zoel Sat down but was still out of breath..
Zoey Rivera / fl
huff..! I am here now ! let's do this 🤧
The team looks at each other in confusion. But the man's face is neutral, trying to remain professional.
lily/employee
who is she ..! *wispers*
mark/employee
shh look at the boss..quiet I will tell you later *wispers*
the unknown man begin to speak again..
Ethan Harper/ml
you are ..zoey rivera right..?!!🤨
zoel grinning and giving a thumbs up
Zoey Rivera / fl
Yep! That’s me! Zoey, but you can call me Z! So, uh, what are we talking about?🤔
Ethan looks around, clearly trying to stay composed but a little thrown off by her informality.
Ethan Harper/ml
Right. This is a meeting about the new project launch. I’m going over the campaign strategy—
Before he could finish zoel started interrupting, jokingly
Zoey Rivera / fl
Oh! Is it a PowerPoint? Please tell me it’s a PowerPoint. I live for the drama of the slides!😂
The team stares at Zoey, unsure if she’s serious or not. Ethan raises his eyebrows, holding up his hands in a gesture of patience.
Ethan Harper/ml
Actually, yes. But, Zoey, if you could—
Zoey looked over the PowerPoint on the screen, dramatically squinting her eyes.
Zoey Rivera / fl
Hmm... too many bullet points. This feels like a corporate horror movie👹. I might fall asleep if I keep staring at this. Don’t worry, I’ve got an idea to spice it up.😚
Ethan was half confused, half concerned
hearing her non stop remarks..!
Ethan Harper/ml
Spice it up? Zoey, I—
Zoey pulls out her phone and taps something quickly, as if already making changes
Zoey Rivera / fl
Don’t worry, I’ve got a flair for presentations. I can make this… memorable.🤩
Ethan was taken aback, he looked at his team, who seems to be holding back giggles.
Ethan Harper/ml
Okay, we’ll... come back to that. Let’s just focus on the campaign details, alright?
Ethan who was trying to start the presentation for a long time finally succeeded
Ethan clicks to the next slide, clearly trying to push through the meeting. Zoey, however, seems completely distracted by something on her phone.
Ethan Harper/ml
*seriously, trying to keep it together*
Ethan Harper/ml
As you can see, the core audience for this campaign is primarily millennials. The key messaging needs to focus on...
Zoey Rivera / fl
*loudly, without looking up*
Zoey Rivera / fl
Sorry, but did I just see Comic Sans on this slide? Why? Who let this happen?🤣🤣
The team stares awkwardly. Ethan visibly stiffens
Ethan Harper/ml
*Rubbing his temples*
Ethan Harper/ml
That’s... an aesthetic choice
Zoey Rivera / fl
An aesthetic choice? No, no, this is an abomination of fonts. Can we please fix this before it’s too late?
She grins at Ethan, but he looks completely baffled.
Ethan Harper/ml
*Gritting his teeth*
Ethan Harper/ml
I’ll... consider it. But let’s stay focused.
Zoey Rivera / fl
sure sure...!😂
Ethan painstakingly finished the whole presentation after 20 mins of non stop interruption from zoey
Zoey Rivera / fl
ok fine now that the presentation is over I will introduce myself
Zoey Rivera / fl
I am zoey as the ceo mentioned earlier you guys can call me Z
the team nodded there head
Zoey Rivera / fl
Alright, alright. Let’s go around and make this more fun. You! You look like a Mike, but I’m gonna call you ‘Snazzy
mark/employee

Zoey Rivera / fl
Sure, sure, Mark. But I’m calling you Snazzy now. Deal with it.😆
Zoey Rivera / fl
And you! I’m feeling a ‘Chadwick’ vibe from you.🤩
lily/employee
*alarmed!!*what..
lily/employee

Zoey Rivera / fl
Chadwick works better. Trust me, it’s a good name. A strong name.😁
Ethan watches in disbelief as Zoey turns to him.
Zoey Rivera / fl
Hey, and you... you’re definitely an Ethan, huh? Or should I call you ‘Captain Formality’?😌
Ethan Harper/ml
*Looking surprised, trying to stay professional*
Ethan Harper/ml
Captain Formality? It’s... nice to meet you too, Zoey.😶
Zoey Rivera / fl
* grins and nods in satisfaction as Ethan looks at his team, wondering what he’s gotten himself into.*
Zoey Rivera / fl
captain formality.. we will survive ok..! but not with comic sans 😆
Ethan stares at her, feeling completely out of his depth
Ethan Harper/ml
Alright, Zoey. We’ll... we’ll figure this out.
Zoey Rivera / fl

Zoey left the room finally giving a peice of mind for Ethan
mark/employee
* wispers *let's go lily..
lily/employee
* nods * what a crazy lady !! *wispers*
one by one people left the meeting room except for Ethan..
Ethan Harper/ml

post meeting Chaos
The meeting concludes with Zoey’s usual mix of chaos and off-the-cuff comments.
The employees file out, but Mark and Lily hang back, glancing at each other as Zoey continues to chat animatedly with Ethan.
lily/employee
*Whispering to Mark as they watch Zoey*
lily/employee
So, how did she end up here? I mean, Ethan's been on edge since she arrived, and this is only day one.
mark/employee
*Sighing and leaning in, lowering his voice*
mark/employee
Well, here’s the thing. It’s been... chaotic, to say the least. But if you want to know, this whole mess started just two days ago
lily/employee
Two days ago? What happened?
Mark started Grinning, knowing exactly what story to tell
mark/employee
Alright, brace yourself. It all started with that damn AI toaster. You know, the one that was supposed to revolutionize our product line.
mark/employee
But instead, it got so many negative reviews, it was trending for all the wrong reasons. Ethan was in panic mode.
Ethan’s Office – Two Days Ago
Ethan sits at his desk, visibly frustrated, as he scrolls through the avalanche of negative feedback about the AI toaster.
The comments range from sarcastic to downright harsh.
His assistant enters, holding a message.
joe/assistant
Ethan, you’re going to want to see this. It’s... about the AI toaster project.
Ethan sighs, barely looking up, knowing exactly what’s coming.
Ethan Harper/ml
Please tell me it’s a miracle. A positive review? Anything?
joe/assistant
*Handing over a printed email*
joe/assistant
Actually, no. But... there’s something interesting. Zoey Rivera just reached out. She saw the feedback and wants to help.
Ethan Harper/ml
*Snapping his head up, curious but skeptical*
Ethan Harper/ml
Zoey Rivera? The freelance marketing genius? What could she possibly do with this mess?
The assistant nods, not as surprised as Ethan
joe/assistant
She’s got a reputation for turning chaos into gold. She says she can boost our sales and fix the product launch... if you’re willing to hire her for the next six months.
Ethan thinks for a moment, staring at the email, then looks at the clock ticking down.
Ethan Harper/ml
*Muttering to himself*
Ethan Harper/ml
Six months... It’s our last shot at this. Fine. Set it up. Get her on the phone.
joe/assistant
sure I will reach out to her
joe/assistant
hello miss zoey my boss would like to speak with you..📲
Zoey Rivera / fl
hi....ok Mr assistant give it to him 📲
Her tone is confident, no-nonsense, with a touch of humor.
Ethan Harper/ml
hello miss!📲
Zoey Rivera / fl
*On the phone, casually*
Zoey Rivera / fl
hi Ethan right, let’s be real. The AI toaster? It’s a disaster. But I’ve got a plan. Six months — you want me to clean up this mess, and I can guarantee results. But I work my way. I’m not here to play corporate games. Deal?📲
Ethan is silent for a moment, feeling both desperate and intrigued by Zoey’s directness.
Ethan Harper/ml
*Reluctantly, but with a hint of respect*
Ethan Harper/ml
Alright, Zoey. You’re on. But we need results — fast. Can you handle it?📲
Zoey Rivera / fl
*laughs lightly*
Zoey Rivera / fl
Ethan, sweetie, I live for chaos. Let’s do this.📲
Ethan Harper/ml
*sweetie what is wrong with her...*
Ethan Harper/ml
ok then we will meet you in the next meeting then !📲
Zoey Rivera / fl
sure sweetie... bye 😌📲
mark/employee
So, yeah. She signed a six-month contract two days ago. She’s here to fix this mess and bring the launch back on track.
lily/employee
Wait, she’s only been here two days?
mark/employee
*nods*Yep. And she’s already flipped everything upside down. Ethan didn’t know what he was getting into, but... honestly, I think she’s the only one who can pull this off. She’s a force
as Mark said this they both looked at zoey who is talking to the assistant of ethan
lily/employee
*raising an eyebrow*
lily/employee
Do you think this is going to work?
mark/employee
*Shrugging with a smirk*
mark/employee
Who knows? But one thing’s for sure — it’s gonna be one hell of a ride
The beanbag rebellion
Ethan walks into the office the next morning, coffee in hand, only to freeze mid-step.
Something is... different.
His meticulously organized workspace has been transformed into what can only be described as a millennial’s dream lounge.
The desks are gone, replaced with colorful beanbags.
A lava lamp glows ominously in the corner of his office.
There’s a yoga ball where his ergonomic chair used to be, and someone has stuck a motivational poster on his wall that reads, “Chaos Breeds Creativity.”
Zoey is perched on a beanbag in the middle of the chaos, sipping a smoothie. She waves cheerfully.
Zoey Rivera / fl
Morning, boss! Like what I’ve done with the place?
Ethan Harper/ml
*Staring in horror*
Ethan Harper/ml
Where. Are. The. Desks.
Zoey Rivera / fl
Relax! I just thought the team needed a vibe upgrade. You know, to get those creative juices flowing.😌
Ethan pinches the bridge of his nose, muttering something about “vibe upgrades” being the death of professionalism.
He storms into his office, only to find Sam, his finance manager, awkwardly attempting to balance on the yoga ball.
Ethan Harper/ml
Why are you in my office?
sam
*panicked* I thought it was... communal now?
Zoey Rivera / fl
It is! We’re breaking down barriers, boss. It’s very forward-thinking.😌
Ethan Harper/ml
It’s unprofessional. Put the desks back.
Zoey Rivera / fl
*mock-serious* I can’t. The desks are… gone.🤷♀️
Ethan Harper/ml
🤨Gone where?
Zoey Rivera / fl
*Shrugging* I don’t know. Craigslist? A bonfire? Does it matter?
Ethan Harper/ml
Cue an emergency team meeting. Sam NOW!
The employees, surprisingly, seem thrilled with the new setup.
Linda mentions how the beanbags are great for her back
Sam says the lava lamp has improved his mood by 200%.
Ethan, however, is visibly twitching.
Ethan Harper/ml
*trying to maintain calm* We are not a daycare. We are a tech company. How are we supposed to work like this?
Zoey Rivera / fl
*Grinning* Simple. You sit, you vibe, you innovate.🤷♀️
The argument escalates until Zoey, in true Zoey fashion, challenges Ethan to try the new setup himself.
Zoey Rivera / fl
One presentation. On a beanbag. If you can survive it, we keep the setup for a week. If not, I’ll bring back the desks myself.😏
Ethan Harper/ml
*Narrowing his eyes* Fine.
Ethan started his presentation
Ethan Harper/ml
As you can see, the Q4 projections... are..
Ethan Harper/ml
*awkwardly shifts, almost toppling over*
Ethan Harper/ml
…slightly…*glares at Zoey*…off.
The team bursts out laughing, and even Ethan can’t help but crack a smile as Zoey gives him a thumbs-up.
Ethan finds Zoey in the breakroom, adding more motivational posters to the walls.
Ethan Harper/ml
*sighing* Fine. One week. But if productivity drops even a little, those beanbags are gone.🤦♂️
Zoey Rivera / fl
*grinning* Deal. Oh, by the way, I found an espresso machine for the breakroom. You’re welcome.
Ethan walked back to his cabin
As he walks back , he overhears Linda and Sam whispering again
linda
You think he’s starting to like her?
sam
*Smirking* I think he’s starting to lose his mind. But hey, maybe she’s exactly what he needs.
Ethan pauses, glances over his shoulder at Zoey—who’s now demonstrating how to “zen sit” on a beanbag to a bemused intern—and shakes his head with a reluctant smile.
Ethan Harper/ml
*to himself* Exactly what I don’t need
