Like I don't think Mrs Smitty is in all that much danger from it, since she's a super fit non smoking non drinker

She doesn't care tho, she fears the Bug

So long as we are at DEFCON 1, she is calm and happy

So we'll stay at DEFCON 1 just for that reason

She is crowing now tho

People at her firm who did not start working from home when she ordered it for her team, are all sick now

They probably aren't going to die,

but it has disrupted their lives hugely and they are wishing they had listened to her now

Nobody on Mrs Smitty's team is sick,

they are all praising her for overriding the chain of command to save them

Even if it turns out to be a false alarm, DEFCON 1 does work

Good training

All told in the firm, there are four confirmed cases of COVID, one in hospital

22 others are sick without confirmation of COVID, one of them is also in hospital

This is not in one office tho, this is combined, European, American, Canadian & Australian offices

During the big meeting for Australia, the CEO praised Mrs Smitty for her due diligence, everybody applauded

So she was beaming.

That was for me tho, because I am the one who set DEFCON 1, not her, she simply obeyed my orders

No, I let her have all the glory, but she did say that her husband is ex-military and he was her inspiration

Even better tho

She started calling the protocol "DEFCON 1"

And now they are all calling it "DEFCON 1"

The CEO actually loves the term DEFCON 1

He didn't know what it meant so when he asked her, she had to run downstairs and ask me what it stands for

I actually gave her a quick brief on DEFENSE CONDITION, which she passed on to the CEO

Once he found out that it was from the Pentagon, he's been using the term ever since.

US Military = Gold Standard
