Quoted By:
You decide to miss the beginning, the play doesn't really interest you as much as your appearance. You run to the theatre door where the employee looks at you with a confident smile and perfect teeth. You talk to him for a few seconds and pay for a ticket (-50 dollars), trying to hide your image. You slip into the ladies' room where there are others getting ready, powdering their noses and generally looking beautiful in front of the mirror.
You enter one of the stalls and begin to change. After a complete makeover, you now fit in here, looking beautiful with perfect make-up and hairstyle, along with a stunning dress. The theatre reception is practically empty, and you can hear the play in full swing in the main hall, so you quicken your pace a little.
Even though you missed the beginning, the play touches your soul. This is pure art, demonstrating the skill of the actors and their creator, who, at the end of the play, takes a bow before the audience as the hall erupts in applause.
‘Damn, what talent!’ you say to yourself in your head. As you leave the hall, you follow the crowd walking towards another adjoining room, the buffet room. Upon entering, you notice that the place is quite segregated and divided by different classes of the city.
Which tables should I approach?
> Business tables - people with refined manners and haughty appearances are seated, consuming food that you recognise as being of very high quality. They talk and show off. You manage to hear some of their conversations where they talk about companies, shares, profits, etc.
> Artistic tables - a group of tables are specially created with works of art, extravagant decorations and a unique style, even having works of art on display for sale in this small corner of the buffet. These people seem more relaxed, talkative and conversational, and you can hear them talking about paintings, some costs of living, artistic styles, inspirations, music, etc.
> Brainiac tables - this group of tables near the windows is occupied by less refined people with a simpler and more casual style, but still maintaining the minimum standards for this place. They seem less adapted to social situations but talk a lot among themselves. You can hear some of their conversation and barely understand what they are talking about: science, numbers, chemistry, etc.
> Workers' table - at the back of the buffet, you can see a group of somewhat simpler tables next to the door where countless waiters come out to serve all the diners in the room. You can see that they still meet the standards required to be present in this place. Most of the people at this table are middle-aged men, laughing and enjoying themselves as if they were in a bar drinking high-quality wine. They have robust, thick bodies with tired faces and hands that show signs of calluses.
