Comrades! Rejoice!

I ran into Comrade Glorious Leader just before he was put into solitary confinement with the rest of the revolutionary council.

He has issued me a new statement of work (SOW) to get out of jail.

Comrades! With something so simple as this, I am ready to create a plan.

A Revolutionary project Management Plan that will encompass all aspects.

We have a definite deadline, which is before the end of the year.
We have a scope, get out.
We have human resources: other prisoners (to be recruited), and the revolutionary council (in solitary).
We have a budget: I get 2 cartons of cigarettes a week, but I don't smoke, and it isn't allowed here. Nevertheless, it is currency.
We shall manage the different risks: Getting caught, stoolpigeons, pigeons, killed, etc...
We shall have quality, which in this case is difficult to measure.
We shall have a schedule, and work breakdown structure.

All that remains is to combine these elements, manage the change requests, like other prisoners wanting to leave too, and shall be out of here soon.

Rejoice! The revolution will march on!

Comrades! I have horrible news!

Our lateral thinking session, known to others as thinking outside the box, has ended in disaster.

We have been captured.

I'm far too despondent to plan a revolutionary escape plan for now.

Comrades! Keep your spirits high! We will make it out!
