My experience says otherwise. There is no time to goof off.

Point taken, but I'll tell you straight up that working in the engine room of a Navy ship doesn't leave a whole lot of time to goof off. I always laughed at the commercials for Navy recruitment, where they rang the bell for liberty call. If we were under ship's power, Machinery, Boilers, Auxiliaries (like the water purification crew) Generator gang and Electricians got no liberty call. Maybe one of those civilian jobs would've had some goof-off time, idunno. I worked for civilian defense contractors for an additional 27 years after my naval service; I can give you plenty of assurance that the people of the US got (even more than) their money's worth out of me. It's pretty embarrassing to admit, but I worked about 800 hours unpaid on one project, back in the '80s. To be fair, I expected a big promotion out of it. Pff. I got a 3% raise. Assholes.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I have some Pfizer stock in one of my investment portfolios, but offhand, I don't know how many shares.

Why am I picturing 2021 as being some version of The Hunger Games?

No but I do have 250,000 shares in Fireflies Incorporated and will sell them to you at the low low price of €50,000. Great value.

Looks like the vaccine needs to be stored and transported at -70C.
