thank you for this entertaining and educational story!

the spilled urea tank is a particularly interesting element. it seriously seems like this kind of disaster could be used to get other offices to move away from the open plan.

hmmm. what might be the "spilled urea tank" moment in a software startup's office? maybe something related to the CEO's personal information being leaked.

Yeah probably this. The number of people who I observe walking away from their machines without locking the desktop on a daily basis is terrifying from a security standpoint.
