This is the time to start invoking all of the gods for a more dynamic and adaptive office environment.

"Listen, Ryan, I'm gonna need you to ask yourself what Enki would do in this situation, ok? You're giving Enlil when I need an Enki. Dammit, get your head in the game. Have you not been keeping up on this stuff? Seriously, if you've been experimenting with that Jesus stuff again I'm gonna come unglued, I swear. Get off the fuckin cross already, jeez."

Sure, but still no reason not to put it on display in clear and hamfisted terms if you ask me
