JIM AS DIRECTOR. Okay, okay, this is the set. I know â it doesnât look like much but donât worry weâll green-screen everything in later on. Weâve got the basics and all the special-effects wizardry can happen later. I know. Fantastic. No, no, itâs actually cheaper than building everything. Weâre shooting this in a linear timeline â think something like Tangerine, you see that? No? Okay. Weâve got the three cameras, so feel free to move around the space â I know weâve rehearsed but donât be afraid to follow your instincts if something feels ârightâ, know what I mean? Okay. You all set? Everyone on set all set? Jim â Iâm going to give you very little direction, you just do what you do. Great, Jim, maybe take that as a starting position. Maybe a bit further left. Perfecto. And maybe put your hands in your pockets? No. Youâre right â why is the actor always right? â hands out of pockets. Oh and I keep the camera rolling after the dialogue has ended, so you just keep doing what youâre doing, yeah? Itâs a director thing. All set on set? Standby. Action.
Irina / Jim
That was. That was, I must admit. I was surprised.
/
Jim?
/
Give me something. You okay?
/
That was. Jim?

I couldnât believe the questions in there. Thanks for allowing me to sit in, to witness. She was, she had no idea you were uncomfortable. And the room-divide thing â we could hear, could you hear everything that poor woman was saying next door? Then the sobbing, we could actually hear her sobbing. Thatâs not right. You know, when you went to the loo, I asked about the, and the assessor said itâs not usually like this but they divided the room because thereâs a shortage of computer screens â does that even make sense? How you feeling Jim?
/
Asking. Do you wash yourself in the morning and then when I said âof course he washes himself in the morningâ she actually tut-tutted. Did you hear her tut? You do wash yourself in the mornings, Jim? Course you do. Can you walk to the front door? Do you use public transport? Do you have any pets? I asked the assessor, after, about the washing-machine question â can you use one, how! â and she said if itâs âin the affirmativeâ it means you can handle modern technology. I felt like telling herâŠ
/
You okay, Jim?
/
Theyâre all trick questions.
What?
If you say yes, then they donât give you any points.
But you answered yes to all those questions.
Except the pets one.
/
They donât understand you can have issues while still being able to put a quick wash on.
/
Sorry, who are you again?
Irina. I told you. Before. Yes?
/
My company â well, not my company, itâs Mr Mazioâs company, has been asked to be part of a pilot, a new scheme to get people back into work.
Sorry?
And the best way to identify people â quickly, sans red tape â is to sit in on PIP interviews.
The government pays your company to get people off benefits?
There is a financial incentive but thatâs not why weâre doing it, why Iâm doing it.
Sorry, Iâm a lost cause.
No! Look, you answered all their questions âin the affirmativeâ â letâs take that to its conclusion â why not do something else?
What?
Be part of our scheme. Work can set you free, Jim.
You know who said that?
Boris Johnson?
Close.
Look, itâs a government pilot scheme, helping people with âissuesâ back into work â
Is this some kind of RemployâŠ? Iâm not â
No, no, these are real jobs. Someone from the DWP asked us to â Iâm a manager at a terrific company â find suitable candidates.
Whatâs it called, this scheme?
âWork Hard and Make Something of Yourself.â
Really?
No. Jokes.
/
Doesnât have a name. Yet. Building a country that works for everyone starts here, Jim.
With me?
Fantastic. Iâll get the ball rolling.
Really â as easy as that?
Iâm a manager. I can do these things. What do you say? I have the feeling you are going to be a terrific worker, Jim.
Jim
JIM is on the production line â heâs quick and good at his job.
Along with the pizzas that come along the line, thereâs a rosette that JIM picks up and pins on himself. It says âEmployee of the Monthâ.
What? Me?
(Then a trophy.
Heâs having a wonderful time. But then:)
Irina / Jim
Again.
JIM quickly drops the rosette and trophy back onto the line â
IRINA is not aware of them.
Again.
/
Again.
/
Again. Come on, Jim, youâre getting slower, not faster.
Sorry, Irina, I can get faster but with you watching me itâs difficult. Itâs, like, more pressure than normal. Not that pressure is bad, I thrive on pressure. Pressure is my middle name. Jim âPressureâ Leach, thatâs â
Okay, okay. Iâll stop the production line, yeah, for a minute. Jim, this is a job that requires speed and accuracy. Eight per ten secs is min.
I know. I know itâs all about speed and accuracy.
And your speed is just not⊠speedy enough. Jim, the Mazio Pattern was designed personally by Mr Mazio so every pizza looks individual. Itâs very important to the company identity. You know we canât call these handmade pizzas without your very vital input â
Putting the meat on top?
We could get a machine to do it â but machines donât have hands, do they?
I realise that.
So if machines did it we couldnât put âhandmadeâ on the box.
And two quid on the price.
Exactly. Consumers aspire to better things, Jim. They want bespoke meal plans, custom-fit clothing, made-to-measure kitchens and handmade pizzas â and those hands are yours, Jim. I donât think...
