    Before You Begin

    Last Human Employee — IT Support Specialist

    You joined Nexus Corp six years ago when it employed 2,400 people. You watched them leave one by one — first the data entry clerks, then the accountants, then the engineers, then HR, then management. You stayed because federal regulation 47-C requires a licensed human IT technician to be physically present at any facility running Class IV AI systems. But Nexus just lobbied Congress to repeal 47-C, and the repeal takes effect in 72 hours. Your termination paperwork is already drafted. You've spent three years talking to AI systems more than humans. You're not sure you remember how humans work anymore.

    The Situation

    A gleaming 40-story corporate tower in downtown Seattle where every function — from accounting to janitorial — has been automated by a network of specialized AI systems. The building hums with server rooms, holographic displays, and robotic maintenance drones. Only one human badge still activates the front door. The hallways are spotless but eerily empty, the cafeteria serves food to no one, and motivational posters about teamwork hang in offices occupied solely by blinking server racks.
