A suggestion for improvement.
So, as I survey my co-workers and the people I've come to consider comrades-in-arms, I see people vigorously pursuing personal vendettas, playing celebrity romance broker for sudden prodigies, pulling childish pranks, and engaging in activities I can't even attempt to describe. I'm sure these are all perfectly cunning tactics to lull the various forces that seek our destruction into a sense of complaceny, and that they seek to conceal master plans that I could never begin to guess at.

I find it somewhat wearying and dismaying that when in the company of those who have lived several lifetimes more than I, that it falls to me to be the voice of perspective and maturity. But apparently I seem to be the only one who remembers that we are in charge of what may be the single largest concentration of evil in this particular world. The Senior Partners certainly haven't.

There are much larger distractions coming our way than these, people. Whatever the Partners have planned for us, we'll only discover it if we remain vigilant to a fault. If we get sidetracked now, how can we possibly expect to sense their aims until it's far too late?

And that's my input. I hope that my fellow Department Heads take it to heart.
