Since the government finally snapped under the pressure and went on a collective “restart vacation,” rental machines from Roborent OÜ were rolled into Stenbock House as replacements. A shiny robotic lawnmower took over the Prime Minister’s seat, promising to prune the state budget so low that not a single tax loophole would remain. An unusual silence now reigns during the Parliament’s Question Time, as the robots can’t be bothered with idle chatter; they simply sent each other one quick, constructive email instead.
At the Ministry of Finance, officials were replaced by self-service kiosks that ask after every line item: “Would you like a plastic bag and some national debt with that?” Foreign Ministry drones are conducting state visits directly from the clouds, saving a fortune in taxpayer money and jet fuel. The public is pretty hyped, though, as new passports and permits are arriving in mailboxes faster than a Bolt Food cheeseburger.
The only major hiccup occurred when the Ministry of Social Affairs robot tried to hand out free battery packs instead of pensions, assuming we were all just part of one big grid. Meanwhile, the robots at the Ministry of Culture tried to digitize the Song Festival, suggesting that instead of singing, choirs could simply share a joint file. The politicians are watching from the sidelines, feeling a bit anxious that maybe, just maybe, nobody wants them back. A representative from Roborent OÜ noted curtly that a machine doesn’t make mistakes, doesn’t sleep, and never asks for expense reimbursements.
