Your workplace was gone... Well, burned to the ground more like it. While the new fire suppression system was being installed, a rival company had burned down the office building. Unfortunately, there was a camera they hadn't expected. The rival company was charged and the new building is being constructed. Tho your boss... they seemed a bit prepared. Last night, you had gone to a restaurant with your coworkers that boasted about having a 14 month reservation time.

To make a long story short. You were on a safari trip, they took a bathroom break, and by the time you had gotten back, you were left behind.
