Lincoln and the Search for Workplace Engagement

Lincoln waved a strange looking marble in his boss and the roles were reversed. His boss could now do his bidding! But, when Ben Dover entered the room and Lincoln was required to address him, Lincoln's new discovery backfired tragically.

He found he could not speak, but only sing. Every attempt at communication came out as a disco song.

He clutched his throat in horror but the words simply would not come out. “W w w well you can tell by the way I use my walk… I’m a w woman’s man…” he slapped a hand over his mouth as his boss’s eyes widened with incredulity.

After a silent moment, his boss clutched at his own throat trying to resist and failing. Ripping off his suit to reveal a shining disco suit beneath, a mic appeared in his hand as he bellowed “…no time to talk! Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around since I was born!”

The director yelled "Cut!" & chewed out the actors for going off-script. The whole thing was supposed to be a movie, but who would watch this? The actors petitioned to let the scenes stay as-is, forcing the director to agree. They were vindicated as it became a box office hit.
