Offsite in the Parking Lot

They booked a cabin. I sat in a Subaru for six hours and emailed photographs of a crow.

Gareth, confirming you’re facilitating Saturday. Agenda: vision, values, Q3 bets, trust falls if time. Lodge has gluten-free muffins. Please don’t be late. Last time you were in the lot.

Chris,

I am in the parking lot. This is the offsite. The lodge is a building with expectations in it. The lot has a crow and a very honest light.

Please come outside. We will do vision from here. If anyone needs a muffin they may eat it in the rain, which will make it a story.

Gareth

Come inside

There are twelve people in a circle. Two of them drove four hours. Please come inside.

Attached: four photographs of the crow. Photo 3 is the strategy. The crow is looking away, which is how you know it is thinking about Q3.

Trust falls are cancelled. The asphalt is unforgiving and so am I.

I will remain in the Subaru until 2 p.m. as booked. If the twelve people would like to join they will need to bring their own seats. The passenger side is for Dennis.
