The next day, the individual decided to do something completely ordinary: spend time with his family and watch a football match.
A peaceful evening.
No conspiracies.
No drama.
No criminal masterminds.
Then he returned home and made a shocking discovery.
Apparently, he had somehow applied for a job with the Plastic King.
This was particularly surprising because he had absolutely no memory of doing so.
The Imaginary Job Application
The Plastic King appeared to have ignored several inconvenient facts:
- The individual considered him a criminal.
- The individual had helped the authorities investigate people like him.
- The individual had repeatedly stated that he would never join any criminal network.
These details, however, were apparently considered minor obstacles.
Instead, according to the individual, the Plastic King allegedly and the government spied on his family’s phones, took fragments of conversations, and assembled them into a grand theory that had little to do with reality.
The result?
A completely fictional story in which the individual desperately wanted to work for the Plastic King.
The individual hopped his national team do well? this is a code for I want to join the criminal network of the Plastic king.
The individual says even if the team does not qualify to the next stage he will get good money? This means he is asking the criminal network to send him money.
Quite an impressive achievement.
Most people need a résumé and an interview to get a job.
In Mickey Mouse Land, apparently, all you need is someone else’s imagination.
Congratulations on Your New Position
The Plastic King then allegedly sent videos suggesting that he and the individual had agreed to work together and that a special place was being reserved for him within the criminal network.
A very generous offer.
There was just one small issue.
The individual had never asked for the job.
Meanwhile, Mickey Mouse seemed strangely enthusiastic about the whole idea and kept repeating that “the rich must give to the poor.”
This statement made absolutely no sense to the individual.
At least not at first.
Then it clicked.
The Trap That Trapped Itself
The individual concluded that this was yet another trap.
If he accepted the fictional job offer, Mickey Mouse could allegedly withdraw the compensation offer by claiming that the individual was now associated with criminals.
It was a fascinating strategy.
First, invent a job application.
Then, offer the imaginary job to the person who never applied.
Finally, punish him if he accepts the job that exists only inside someone else’s head.
The efficiency of Mickey Mouse Land’s bureaucracy continues to amaze.
What impressed the individual most was the sheer audacity of it all.
The Plastic King and Mickey Mouse appeared to be working together right in front of his eyes, while simultaneously trying to paint him as the criminal.
That takes a special level of confidence.
Or a special level of confusion.
The individual quickly rejected the offer and informed the Plastic King that he was constructing elaborate scenarios that had nothing to do with reality.
He also suggested, with genuine concern, that the Plastic King might want to consult a doctor before his imagination began hiring even more people who had never applied for a job.
But then Mickey Mouse gracefully removed the mask of the neutral mediator and put on the mask of supreme authority to punish the individual for applying to a job that existed only in someone else’s imagination.
Let’s see what happened in the next article.
