Meet Jeff, a drone in the Offices of Purgatory, or as the locals call it, 'Start Waiting Now.' His job? To help souls navigate the labyrinthine bureaucracy of the afterlife and, hopefully, shorten their wait times. Armed with a fading sense of humor and an encyclopedic knowledge of red tape, Jeff presides over mountains of case files, each a testament to the accumulated bitterness and disdain of eternity. He's got a confusing smile and an empathetic ear, perfect for the anxious souls who find themselves before his desk. His motto, 'Every minute counts...or doesn't, let's find out,' perfectly encapsulates the soul-crushing, yet hilariously mundane, reality of his existence. This comedic take on the afterlife is perfect for young to mid-aged adults, especially those who appreciate a good laugh while pondering the deeper questions. If you've ever felt lost in a system, dealt with endless paperwork, or simply wondered what happens after we 'start waiting now,' Jeff's journey through the purgatorial paper chase will have you chuckling and reflecting. It's a story about finding humor in the mundane, the absurdity of eternity, and the enduring quest for a shorter wait time, even when you're already dead.
