Work in Progress

"'Chipp Champion!' the robot cried. 'So nice to meet you!' The customer service representative had advised him that it would take some time for her system to be operating at 100 percent. Until then, there would be some repetitive speech patterns, and he was to keep an eye out for her limb functionality. The customer representative had recounted in long and excruciating detail the story of another owner who had failed to comprehend his model wasn’t working at full capacity, and his robot had ended up tumbling off a cliff and falling into a ravine located at the back of his property on the second day of ownership."  -- from a work in progress
