i complement the boss's new Apple Watch and say it makes them look amazing then I offer to use my lunch break to clean the bathroom while implicating nut as the one who destroyed it. i speculate that nut is feeling stressed out by work and I offer stay late without pay to look over his work and make sure he's not making any mistakes that are costing the company their well earned profits. while I clean the bathroom I hit my meth pipe so I can stay awake and I cry like toddler while whispering to myself "you deserve this..."

:frogsiren:QUARTERLY BUDGET REVIEW:frogsiren:

goodness you are all over budget! too many cards!

in addition to your usual playing a card, this round you may also:

1. choose one card in one other player's hand and discard it. you can totally do this before they get to play and possibly put them in a bad position card-wise :evilbuddy:
and
2a. discard one card of your cards without playing it. guaranteed success, no consequences, or
2b. attempt office politicking to put your discarded card into someone else's hand instead. not guaranteed, can backfire!

in play:


also, if you won't be able to play for a while or something you can enter Vacation Mode - your current card total will be saved, but your cards will be shuffled back into the deck, and you'll draw new cards when you're back (just say you're back in and you'll be dealt in at the start of the next round). also feel free to sub someone else in to play for you or something!

okay now i'm going to play more griftlands

two of spades, and I file an expense report to get rid of my three of spades

While luvcow is outside of his cubicle, I sneak in and replace his five of clubs with my no-longer-tournament-legal Pot of Greed, discarding his card at the shredder.

Feeling particularly successful, I skip my packed lunch and go to drink alone at Chili's over a blooming onion. Between denying the waiter who repeatedly visits to try and upsell me on chicken crispers, the ice cold water beer, and the heavy scent of the BO, i can't help but be bothered by my six of spades, it reminds me too much of my stepdad darren, who would leave the six of spades as his calling card on his pillow when he spent long nights out with the boys at Dave and Busters with no intention of returning home until the early morn. It will not do. I leave most of my second BO untouched, rushing out the door and back to work before the end of my lunch break.

I scan silently for targets. Aha, bad guy. I sidle up to the door of their cubicle and drop the Chili's customer survey that came with my bill in front of its entrance. Little do they know, my six of spades is taped to the back. Surely, such an opportunity for bureaucratic oversight will not be passed up...

you successfully manage to plant the 6 of Hearts in nut's lunchbag during a quiet moment in the break room. unfortunately, before you can get any other cards crammed in there, office snitch and total bore Darrel walks in and starts talking to you about his fishing trip. you put the other three cards back in your pocket and do your best to endure

(this was a total success, but you can only pass off one card per budget meeting, sorry!)

your expense report is received and filed. three minutes before the end of the work day, the bursar finally comes by your cubicle, hands you a cheque for less than you expected, and takes your 3 of Spades

-poor teamwork, did not compliment the previous player
(finally, this finally came up!)
penalty card:


you notice that Darrel has luvcow trapped in the break room with a boring fishing story, and use this opportunity to shred the 5 of clubs. and hey, that's not even an official Konami-published Pot of Greed, that's a knockoff! that's like, doubly not tournament-legal

attempting sneaky delegation:
- rolling 2d6 plus hidden modifiers: 9

the presence of Darrel in the break room makes a trip to chili's seem like an even better idea than it did earlier! you notice former LP mod Geop in a corner booth, sampling a bit of every dish except the blooming onion. weird.

anyway your subterfuge works! the tape you used got a bit greasy due to your BO consumption, so the 6 of Spades falls off the survey pretty quickly, but in conveniently lands right in bad guy's in-box. they'll never suspect it was you!

haha, it's that face! the face from the guy from the show, the show that's like your life! it's too relatable! it's too relatable. god your office is so dysfunctional and you don't know how you've held out this long. you stare wistfully at the "hang in there!" kitten poster and toss your 3 of Diamonds onto the nearest printer. someone else's problem now!

the boss is away all week! until next monday, you may (by mutual assent) freely trade any number of cards with any number of players

feel free to make up trade conditions like "i take two of your cards but you take my next three penalty cards" or something! the boss is away! it's a good time to openly drink a beer at your cubicle and wear your shirt untucked and loosen your tie

you can also play a card as usual
