WORK SMART NOT HARD
SCENE ONE
Ext. Cybercafe Medium Shot.
Small, busy cybercafe. Computers present, people focused on their screens. Tunde is already seated, working on his laptop. Dayo walks in.
Tunde seated at laptop, Dayo walking in.
DAYO
(smiling)
Tunde!
TUNDE
Dayo! My guy!
Medium Shot
TUNDE
Dayo, how are you coping with the business these days?
I can't imagine it's been easy.
DAYO
It's been rough, but we pull through. How's it been
for you? You complained about a drop in numbers.
SCENE TWO
INT. Cybercafe
TUNDE
It's been a bit easier since I came across this AI
platform that makes our work easier, more attractive,
and much faster.
DAYO
(frowns)
I'm not interested in AI, Tunde. I won't entertain the
idea of a robot telling me what to do.
Close-Up. Dayo frowning, shaking his head.
SCENE THREE
Int. Cybercafe. Medium Shot.
Tunde explaining with hand gestures.
TUNDE
Oh Dayo, don't be so small-minded. This platform helps
me work less but smarter. It's really helpful and
easier to manage, and I worry less. I just tell it
what to do, and it does it.
(Dayo stares at Tunde mockingly)
Light laughter from Tunde, Dayo smirks.
DAYO
As I've mentioned already, I'm not interested. I won't
allow AI to spoil my work just because you claim it's
easier or faster.
SCENE FOUR
Int. Cybercafe
(Laptop screen and phone showing payment alert)
Sound: Credit alert!
TUNDE
(excited)
Oh Dayo! Look at this!
Close up Shot
Phone screen showing payment notification
TUNDE
See how much I've made in just two days.
DAYO
(eyes widen slightly)
TUNDE
I'm telling you, it's a game changer. Come join my
club, Dayo. You work too hard when you can work smart.
SCENE FIVE
Int. Cybercafe
DAYO
Wow, that's quite some progress you've made.
TUNDE
My guy, wouldn't you like to be on the same level as
me? I don't even do too much yet I make so much.
DAYO
(thoughtful)
This is really intriguing...
SCENE SIX
Int. Cybercafe. Close Shot
(Dayo staring at Tunde's phone, unable to look away)
DAYO
(hesitant)
Tunde, are you sure this money is from that platform
and not some weird job? How can I trust that it's
really as helpful as you say?
DAYO
(quietly)
Hmm...
SCENE SEVEN — FINAL MESSAGE
Int. Cybercafe. Medium Shot
Tunde facing camera
Dayo slightly in frame, watching with interest
TUNDE
(to Dayo and the audience)
AI won't take your job if you learn how to use it
smartly.
The world is evolving fast, and we have to evolve with
it.
Working hard is important, but working smart is what
truly moves you ahead.
"Don't work harder, work smarter."
