[Panel 1]
[Nils]
How's the plan looking?

[Ginny]
The backup servers are ready.

[Jaakko]
Little Katje regards such a short
trip as an insult, especially with
no snow and nobody shooting at her.

[Nils]
So all that's left is... uh-oh.

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
We still haven't got the bosses to pay
for our Lifting Heavy Objects
courses. And the move's in two weeks.

[Ginny]
Oh, that's all right.

That's not our fault, it's an
administrative problem, and one
with a nice simple solution that
just involves throwing money at it.

[Panel 3]
[Jaakko]
But getting the certificates at
short notice will cost thousands.

[Ginny]
Paying for someone else to
move them will cost tens of
thousands in replacements.

And not moving them on
time will cost millions.

[Panel 4]
[Ginny]
I'll have Words with whatshisname's
secretary, it'll soon be sorted.

[Jaakko]
I never really understood
why they did not want us to
have the training anyway.

[Nils]
Because with the certificates
we'd have actual provable skills,
unlike just being a bloody good
bunch of sysadmins, and then we'd
leave the company. I mean, would
YOU still be here if they hadn't
sacked and rehired us?
