Westeros-Financials

🔥 NEW POST: I Wrote This Post During... Loading... Loading voices... I've sat through a lot of meetings in this kingdom. Meetings about meetings. Meetings to plan the meetings about meetings. Once, a meeting to discuss why nobody attends meetings. But I've never sat through one where the Hand of the King casually announced, on camera, in front of 800 people, that he reads this blog and asked his oversight bodies to look into everything raised in it. That happened recently. Let me walk you through it. The God-Mother held a Royal Address. 800 souls across the realm. The Hand in the room. The Kingdom's Treasurer beside him. Two of the most powerful people in Westeros at a house meeting. That tells you everything. But first. A 10-minute introduction of the newest knight. Dream chariot: Porsche. Battle strategy of choice: chess, which is officially a recognised sport, making half the realm's lunch breaks retroactively athletic. Recently read Galileo's ...

Others thought I'd been "remapped to a new role" and was still trying to figure out what it meant. One of you asked if you should file a missing persons report. Relax. HR can barely find a qualified director. They're not finding me. Something personal came up. I can't share details because details are how you get identified, and I rather enjoy being employed. I'll say this: it had nothing to do with the blog, the God-Mother, or Hodor finally learning how to Google "Blogspot." I was unavailable. I'm back. And I brought receipts. Some of you are upset with me.  I've read the comments. "Where are you?" "Do something." "We need you." I hear you. And honestly, it means more than you know that you expect something from this blog. That tells me it matters...

And then the music stopped. On January 23rd, the God-Mother stood in front of hundreds of ITS staff and delivered the performance of her career. And I mean performance. Because none of it was real. "No reduction in force. 1,300 staff will remain or increase." "This is like trimming around the edges." "You don't have to take an exam to keep your job." Beautiful. Reassuring. Specific. And every single word, a lie. Seventeen days. That's how long the promises lasted. Seventeen days before she sent eight directors into eight rooms with the same script, the same dead eyes, and the same instruction: read it, don't answer questions, log off. In GoT, the Red Wedding was the moment the audience realised nobody was safe. The Starks were promised protection. They s...

Let's not overdo it. Thirteen days without a post. Some of you were panicking. One commenter asked, "When should we start worrying about the Chronicler?" Another replied, "When HR starts looking relaxed." Fair point. HR hasn't looked relaxed since Post 1. And judging by the Citadel town hall, they won't be relaxing anytime soon. I wasn't caught. I wasn't silenced. I wasn't absorbed into a Value Stream and decomposed into Story Points. I was doing something the Transformation Office has never attempted: research. Buckle up. This one's loaded. Act I: The Showdown in the Citadel The God-Mother sent her Stormtroopers to the Citadel for a town hall. Mission: reassure the Southern Kingdom that everything is fine. The blog is mos...
