So they said. Then, they changed it. What a fun thing. Perhaps a fine thing.

Fit your own episode to this template if you will, but after a moment when they changed the hours we’d grown used to – a meeting every Tuesday evening – and they wanted it to be a Thursday, my colleagues started throwing things in the air.
