God I hate pencil-pusher culture, it’s so weird 😂

I am now imagining an insurance office where suddenly an alarm goes off:
The lights turn red, a siren howls, and everyone jumps up from their seats and runs to a garage where black vans are wating with the engines running.
They drive to the beach and frantically start picking up bananas, in a race against time and decomposition.

But alas instead it’s a board of lawyers that are engaged in a race to find a loophole to get out of this without spending anything cleaning.

In my area there are independent contractors who listen in on their police scanners. When there is a fire or a break in these contractors show up in a van filled with plywood. As soon as the authorities allow them in they seal the building so no one can get inside. When the insurance company rep shows up they are happy to pay off the contractor because sealing the place prevents further damage.

I bet that van often happens to be parked right around the corner when a building catches fire.

Because it’s New York, yes that did happen at least once.
