Vic looked a little disoriented in the morning Production Meeting. He gripped the edge of the table in a way that displayed his right hand with a garish piece of jewelry gleaming on his wrist. “I was warned about frauds on this cyber Monday that represents people coming back to the office on the Monday after Turkey Day and gastronomic excess and snow storms and all that stuff. So, Imagine my surprise when the President of the United States appeared on the Fox Business Channel selling wrist watches. I bought two, since they claim there will be a wild increase in the value of these political timepieces. This one was only $599 bucks, and less than $1,200 for the pair.”

He waved his wrist with the elegant Beads of Rice bracelet on the deluxe black tachymeter bezel. “The President mentioned I ought to keep the other one in my desk safe with that bottle of Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon and watch both increase in real value.”

Rocket smirked as he stood twirling a finger in the front of the Conference Room on the 4th Floor of The Trillium.

With that, the Boomers went back to their keyboards and the Zoomers sent each other a text suggesting that they might watch what they were doing today!
