The obvious answer is to run away and join Cirque du Soleil, and don't go to the meeting after, or any meeting ever again.
I vote for Tom's choice. Though I used to hear the Cirque was not a great place to work. Maybe take a non-performing role.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Circus ain't sounding bad at this point.
10 (TEN!) people got phished at work. And seeing the original emails...wow. I'm not at all impressed with my coworkers at the moment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh good, because I was about to become an acrobat! Not really, I can't even touch my toes.
AND now I see it's mostly a museum talk about bugs, so I have discarded my FOMO and will skip it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm rather tired at the moment--I couldn't think of any household chores I had to do as a child besides burning the paper garbage. Then I remembered that I did barn chores two or three hours every evening, plus an extra three hours on days when there wasn't school, plus many hours a day working in the fields in the summer. (At least field work wasn't every day.)
I started working in the barn when I was in second grade. I used to hate Sundays in particular, as I had to get up early for chores, then shower and change clothes and go to church, and then come home to do more chores.

I think I got used mostly for transport. "Take this out to the garbage. Take this upstairs. Get the milk for me." My legs were young and springy, so it made sense. Huh, I was a droid.

Ten people fell for phishing schemes? Good grief.

Our wings are not tired.
And seeing the original emails...wow. I'm not at all impressed with my coworkers at the moment.
My sister/bookkeeper too often forwards me fake invoice emails and asks if they are real. Each time I tell her that no vendor of ours is ever going to send an invoice to us that way. I've forbid her to open a browser in our cloud session where the Quick Books is kept. She can put her laptop at risk, but not the business network. I think she has caught on to never open anything without checking with me first.

Phishing attacks can be super effective. You just need one person to click before really thinking.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
