UPDATE: "Make it so a person with zero knowledge could understand it"? Ok. About a year ago, I wrote a [very messy and awkwardly worded post](https://www.reddit.com/r/MaliciousCompliance/comments/1c4y2qi/make_it_so_a_person_with_zero_knowledge_could/), describing how my old boss had me fired due to being a whistleblower, citing my (very proven) unorthodox methods, among other bogus claims, while demanding that I create a document for my future replacement, and "make it so a person with zero knowledge could understand it", which... I did. I didn't expect to even write a follow-up, and definitely not this one. I couldn't have come up with this chain of events if I tried. Predictably, as soon as I left the organization, things quickly began to unravel. Projects fell apart. Partnerships I built disintegrated. Volunteers left (some did so in protest). Community engagement, trust and support from target groups pretty much vanished. My replacement was not only completely clueless, but also a non-functional alcoholic, who didn't even want the job (apparently she was lied to), and drove every single programme to the ground. All of which, in turn, alienated donors as well. But that's not all. One of the comments (u/[SeanBZA](https://www.reddit.com/user/SeanBZA/)) on my old posts suggested I contact IRS, because odds are they would find some fraud going on. Well... You weren't very far off. While I didn't contact any authorities, and generally tried to not escalate anything - I ACCIDENTALLY tipped the manager of the org's biggest funders that something was off. I didn't even realize it until much later. I just ran into him at an event and chatted with him, mentioning that I was fired from the org that December. The manager looked confused. "What do you mean? They said you worked there until March, and left on your own!". After a bit of a puzzled exchange, I also noted that the crew of one of the flagship programmes decided to shut it down a few months earlier... Yeah, the organization reported as if the programme is still running. Long story short... The foundation looked into it, and it was not pretty. **But wait, there's more.** The other biggest funder of the org was a government program. On my very first day at work, I flat out told them this grant was extremely unreliable, and that will last 2-3 years at most before the program gets shut down for being too "progressive", and that they should prepare a backup for when this inevitably happens. Well... Guess how this worked out. And now, for the weirdest plot twist. Ultimately, the CEO decided to jump the sinking and burning ship, and quit (or maybe they got fired?). When I saw the open call for CEO, I decided to be a bit of a troll, and apply. It was mostly just for my own amusement - I wasn't expecting to hear back. Both because of my strained relationship with the org, and because, frankly, despite my expertise in my own field - my relevant experience for this kind of position is fairly limited. I just wanted to rub it in a little. I sent my resume and cover letter, and mostly forgot about it. Well... After a couple of months, they called back. Asked me if I'm still interested in the position, and asked for an interview. I thought about it for a few minutes - and decided to politely decline. It was tempting, honestly. But ultimately, I realized I will hate it, and would probably suck at it, too. My skills are in other places, and my heart is in other places as well. I recently decided to take a break from work altogether to focus on my physical and mental health, and while I'm at it, get a Masters degree. Best of luck to whoever decides to take that position - they're going to need it.

The alien vessel landed quietly on St Peter's square in Rome... A hatch opened and two little grey men with dazzling smiles appeared. They were promptly granted an audience with the Pope. After a brief discussion about the weather, the Pope said, "I know this question may sound odd to you, but I was wondering if you and your kind knew about Jesus Christ?" "Jesus Christ?!" exclaimed the slightly taller of two aliens. "Of course we do! He visits our planet every two years or so. Awesome fellow!" A hush descended on the audience chamber, and everyone watched the Pope, whose face had turned a rather odd purple. "Every two years?" he shouted. "We're still waiting for his second coming!" "Maybe he didn't like your chocolate?" suggested the alien. "Chocolate?" replied the Pope. "What in heaven's name does chocolate have to do with it?" "Well," said the alien. "When he came to our planet, we gave him chocolate. Why, what did you do?"

So aliens from Mars comes down to Earth... ...And they're friendly! The leaders of the world and the aliens plan a huge televised event where the leaders can ask questions on whatever they want. During this event, the pope is up to talk to the aliens. "I know this question may sound odd to you gentlemen," the pope starts to ask, "but I was wondering if you and your kind knew about Jesus Christ?" "Jesus Christ?!?" the alien leader exclaims, "how do we not! He swings by our planet every two years or so. Awesome guy!" Now this obviously starts a huge debate within the UN, as this information now has implications to everything they knew. The pope, however, is not exactly a happy person as his brain is on other information. "EVERY TWO YEARS OR SO?!?" The pope exclaims, "We've still been waiting for his SECOND coming!" Trying to calm down the pope, the aliens say "Well maybe he didn't like your chocolate." The pope, upon hearing this news, takes a few moments to calm down. When he finally regains his composure, he states calmly, "Forgive me, but what does chocolate have anything to do with this?" The aliens respond, "Well when he was on our planet, we would give him huge boxes of chocolates. Why, what did you guys do when he was here?"

Upon arriving on the alien ship, they were greeted by a male alien and a female alien. "Do not fear humans, we come with a proposition for you. My wife and I have decided that we would like to have sex with humans, to see what it is like." So after talking it over for a bit, the man and his wife agreed and were taken into separate rooms. The male alien goes on to tell the wife, "You are in full control here. If you want me to go faster, just push or pull my ears. If you want my dick to get bigger, tap me on the head." It was the most exhilarating sexual experience the wife ever had, getting exactly what she wanted. After they were done the alien sent the wife down to her house where her husband was waiting. "How was your experience babe?" she asks. "It was going great, until that bitch grabbed my ears and started punching me in the head."

An alien spaceship lands in a married couple's backyard... The couple goes out to greet them. After introductions and typical small talk, they discover that these aliens are galactic swingers, and they were looking to do a little swapping. The couple decided that, since they were representing all of humanity, they would play along. The wife takes the male alien upstairs to the main bedroom, while the husband takes the female to the guest room. When the male pulls down his pants, the wife discovers he has a tiny penis...smaller than a golf tee. She chuckled a little bit, and told him "We aren't going to be doing much with that little thing!" The alien, with a twinkle in his eye replied..."Come over here and tug on my right ear." So she did, and his penis grew straight out 14 inches! But it was still as thin as a pencil... He then said "Tug on my left ear now..." After doing so, the alien cock fattened up like a super sized summer sausage! The woman smiled...and after a few more minutes of adjusting found the size she liked, and had the best night of sex in her life. The next morning, after the aliens had left for the stars, the husband and wife sat down in the kitchen to have a cup of coffee. The husband, noticing the glow emanating off of his wife, asked how her night went. She replied "It was wonderful! How about yours?" He shrugged his shoulders and said "Meh...it was ok. Weird thing though...she kept playing with my ears all night..."

Pull on my ears! I heard this one years ago... A couple was driving down the road when a spaceship landed in front of their car. Two aliens got out, they said, "We're a Martian couple, we came down here to have sex with Earthlings and see what that's like. Do you want to have sex with us?" The couple looked at each other and figured, what the hell, when are we going to have this chance again, so they agreed. So, the female alien went off with the male earthling, and the female earthling and the male alien went off to do their thing. Things were getting hot and heavy between them when the male martian took off his pants and said to the woman, "Well, what do you think?" She said, "Well, to be honest, it's smaller than what I'm used to, but I guess it's ok." The martian said, "No, no, that's not all. You see, you pull on my left ear to make it bigger. And you pull on my right ear to make it wider. That way it grows to exactly the size you like." The woman said, "oh wow," pulled on his ears, and they had great sex. Later on, she met back up with her boyfriend and she said, "Well, how was it for you?" He replied, "I guess it would have been ok, but it was hard to concentrate because she just kept on tugging on my ears!"

Two aliens attack on earth Two aliens landed in the Arizona desert near an abandoned gas station. They approached one of the gas pumps, and one of them said to it, 'Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace. Take us to your leader.' The gas pump, of course, didn't respond. The alien repeated the greeting. There was no response. The alien, annoyed by what he perceived to be the gas pump's haughty attitude, drew his ray gun, and said impatiently, 'Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace. How dare you ignore us in this way! Take us to your leader or I will fire!' The other alien shouted to his comrade 'No, you mustn't anger him...!', but before he finished his warning, the first alien fired. There was a huge explosion that blew both of them 200 meters into the desert, where they landed in a heap. When they finally regained consciousness, the one who fired turned to the other one and said, 'What a ferocious creature. It nearly killed us! But, how did you know it was so dangerous?' The other alien answered, 'If there's one thing I've learned during my travels through the galaxy, it's that if a guy has a penis he can wrap around himself twice and then stick into his own ear, don't screw with him!

A couple was walking down the street when an alien spaceship landed in front of them... An alien couple exited the spaceship and said, ''Hello, earthlings, we come in peace and we want you to tell us all about your planet.'' They talked for hours, until they came to the subject of sex. The humans told the aliens how humans have sex and the aliens were in shock! It sounded very similar to the way the aliens did it so, in the interest of intergalactic friendship and exploration, they decided to trade partners for the night. When the woman saw the alien man undress, she immediately laughed. The alien looked down and said, ''Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot.'' And he hit his head twice and it grew to epic proportions. The woman had the greatest sex of her life. The next morning the man asked the woman, ''How was it?'' The woman replied, ''Great! You?'' The man said, ''It sucked. For some reason the alien woman kept hitting me on the head, screaming, 'It's broken! It's broken!'''

First "Contact" In the years that followed first contact between humanity and an alien race, individuals from both species took steps to integrate their two cultures. At one of several social conventions held to further this goal, a human couple and an alien couple meet and discuss their common traits. They eventually decide to swap mates for the evening; the human man going home with the female alien, and the human woman going back to her hotel room with the male alien. Upon arrival, the human woman and the male alien disrobe... and with some dismay, the woman sees that her companion has an incredibly small penis. "I don't think this is going to work," she says. "It's just too short." The male alien grins. "That's no problem!" He smacks himself in the forehead a few times... and with each blow, his member extends by several centimeters. "Wow!" the woman replies. "Only, now it's far too thin." Once again, the male alien offers a smile. This time, he pulls on his ears, and his shaft swells in circumference with each tug. Thoroughly impressed, the woman leaps onto the male alien, and the two of them spend the night in ecstasy. The next morning, the human woman joins her husband for breakfast. "So," he asks, "how was it for you?" "I'm not going to lie," the woman responds, "it was pretty amazing. How was it for you?" The man seems to wince at the memory. "Honestly, it was pretty bad.

Two martian alien robots... Two martian alien robots get beamed down to Earth in front of a 76 station. Martian alien robot one looks at a gas pump and says, "take me to your leader." The gas pump dosn't say anything. Martian alien robot one pulls out his laser gun, points it at the gas pump and says, "take me to your leader or I'll kill you." Again, the gas pump dosn't say anything. Martian alien two says to martian alien one, "dude, hes not listening and is probably really tough. Lets move on to the next guy." "Fuck that!" Exclaims martian alien robot one. He then pulls out his other laser gun and points that at the gas pump as well. "Take me to your leader or I'll turn you into vapor!!!" Yells martian alien robot one. Yet again, the gas pump dosn't say anything, so martian alien robot one pulls the triggers. The gas pump explodes, blowing both martian alien robots across the street into a vacant lot. They come to and shake it off. Martian alien robot one looks at martian alien robot two and asks, "how did you know that guy was so tough?" Martian alien robot two looks at martian robot one and answers, "man, anybody that can wrap their dick around themselves twice and stick it their own ear is one bad motherfucker!"
