Cool, we're under way!
I'll start with a safety for Froggy, not sure who the Memo/Psyche points to

I will cast a safety vote for Jayo to start the game. This is for my daughter who is in London right now! And loving it! Hey Randy? Could I win a free week in London to visit my Libby?

Scrub... I will have to see how the company's profits are as the CEO pulls in the reigns. Enough saved, I could probably find a way to give everyone a trip somewhere. How does Lauderhill, Florida sound? You can see the largest rubber band ball!

The world's largest prairie dog in Kansas sounds better.
Well now. Safety vote for scrub because I said "HI" to him twice and he refused to say "HI" back . . . . . . Randy, send me on a trip, you're choice of destination.

Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

Glad I remembered to check in, it has been a long and tiring two days! Sorry I didn't answer your questions earlier, HABS... in my district, maternity leave must start the first business day after the baby is born. Which seems rather silly to me as I pay for it with my sick leave. In other districts, this is not the case, it depends on the contract.
I am putting in a vote now for Giz, so that if she is the boss and wins, I can at least say I was on to her shenanigans from the start! That being said, I would be glad to join a majority this round if anyone wanted to make this round more useful... If we all vote the same way, we are all at equal risk of being fired (as with a MoO), but we get the added bonus of an extra clear. To do this, we would all vote for one person, and that person would vote someone else so they can't be fired as a lemming.

Hmm... the message of "Catch me if you can" sure sounds very familiar from another game.
For now safety vote for Bobbi.
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

I think it's Froggy, the psych answer sounds like her. But I do have to agree that the memo "catch me if you can" does sound familiar now that Froggy mentions it.Just wish I could remember who said it.

"Catch me if you can" only sounds familiar to me from the title of a novel I read in the 1980s...
And even if it has been used in a game before, maybe the boss we have now knows that and used it hoping others would pick up on the fact it has been said in a previous game.

Maybe the dog only brings the ball back because he thinks you like throwing it.

You do make a valid point Mocha... I'd be willing to join a majority if one is going to form. For now I will just safety vote for RADIOGUY

Good morning!
@mocha: Shenanigans? Moi? Pshaw!
I thought of the movie first thing when I read the memo.
I've wanted to go on a safari since I first read a book where the main character stayed in a treetop hotel in Kenya. Then again, no matter where the Boss chose to go, I've probably either been there already or want to go there!
I'm OK with joining a majority. It seems we have two votes already for froggy, but they are declared safety votes, so I am reluctant to add my vote there.
I'll place a safety vote for snowy for now. I've got a busy day, but will be back before the round ends.
Edit: vote confirmed!

I think a lot of people would go if they had the chance. Well, maybe not, many years ago I was offered a free trip to Egypt, one of the pharmacists I worked with was from Egypt and had a friend who was looking for a Caucasian wife. If I was willing to be his 3rd wife (he already had two, one of whom was expecting triplets) then I could live a life of luxury. Given the suppression of women and the hatred of most westerners in those areas, I turned him down. I would be wiling to go visit,but doubt I would want to live there.

Hi Snow. Glad I could help you feel safe. Not meaning to ignore you, I just did not read round 0.
How come I get podunk Florida and Snowy gets a place so great she can't even imagine it. I want one of those! I want one of those! No fair!
I, too, will join a majority. I don't know many of you, so I will vote with any reasonable play. Check back in tonight.

Habs, there are only 10 employees- the CEO is not only the CFO, but also the janitor right now. The company has to grow before you can add speciality job classifications. Everyone else is needed to make those Widgets and get them shipped out!
Scrub, I thought you wanted to change to see the largest Prairie dog in Kansas?
On a separate note, it appears that Calvin and Hobbs are coming back.

Arr, I be good with whatever ye decides on majority votes. I says it be easier to know who walks the plank that way.
As fer the Boss's memo, I says that aside from the book or movin' picture, the phrase "catch me if you can" means nothin' to this simple pirate. I have never sailed these high seas once in six years, so I remembers nothin' of recent voyages.

Just checking in.
Had a great day. It was like summer, but with fall foliage.

It's been warm here too, everyone is walking around in shorts and t-shirts. I knew that would happen, last week it was freezing so I called the gas company to have them come out and put the gas back on (I turn it off every summer since the only thing we have that runs on gas is our fireplace). They will be here tomorrow, the warm weather is supposed to stick around for at least another week.

Since no majority has formed, and the fact that it's not a good idea for voting for each other, I've changed my safety to HABS.

Looks like the results will depend a great deal on whether or not wawa voted, and for whom.
Wow, that was a LONG day. Amazing how they can just slip through your fingers so quickly. Yeah, I really like that idea of a majority in theory, but I have yet been able to get any group to actually do it.

Just so everyone knows, the next round will start tomorrow morning. I live on the west coast of the US in California... normally up and about around 7-8 am PST. I have to make sure I have some coffee first, but I will start the next round then... the boss has responded to the next question, so we are ready to go. Of course, everyone has been on today... no real clue there, huh?
