I'm going to tell the truth

1. I drank Santana champ, 'cause it's so crisp

2. I wore swim trunks and my flippie-floppies
I was flipping burgers, while others were at Kinko's, straight flipping copies

3. I rode on a dolphin, doing flips and shit,
The dolphin splashed, getting everybody all wet
But this wasn't Sea World, this is real as it gets

4. I wore a nautical themed Pashmina Afghan, I was king of the world on a boat like Leo

5. I was on a boat motherfucker take a look at me
Straight floatin' on a boat on the deep blue sea
Busting five knots, wind whipping out my coat
You can't stop me motherfucker cause I'm on a boat

What email?

An email went out to feds who still have jobs, demanding a “report” from each employee of 5 things they accomplished last week.

Digital Transformation, I'm sure it's best this day and age with advanced technologies. If your boss isn't going to modernize this type of establishment, who would? Maybe the next term placeholder (vice- president currently)

If the email claimed it was from Elon Musk and instructed you to respond to him, then it’s a fraud. Don’t respond to it. If it came from OPM, and asked for a response to OPM, then I would take a few minutes to narrow down your vast list of activities to only the five most valuable and significant things you accomplished or made progress on last week.

Alternatively, take to social media and start complaining about it.
