READING GRANTS BY JEFFREY LO

BILLY on his laptop reading grant applications.

BILLY whispers to himself.

BILLY:
Oh gosh….

Grant apps on grant apps on grant apps…

So many grant apps…

So much reading.

So much work…

Maybe I shouldn’t have agreed to be a part of this –

Nah.

I should do this.

This is important work.

Of course.

Very important.

And the hard part isn’t even all the work or all the reading!

It’s just that I want to fund everyone!

Everyone is so good!

Everyone is worthwhile!

BILLY clicks on the next application.

BILLY:

Ew.

Except this one.

NOPE.

BYE!

Blackout.

END OF PLAY.
