Were they shot with bullets? or other projectiles? Did they hurt? Are any wars relevant? or massacres? Shot by themselves? or other people? opponents in a game? Them: A few people? 10-50? 50-300? 300+? |

Is "their" profession relevant? Could this happen today? |

Were they shot on purpose? By accident? With an intent to: injure? Hurt? Kill? Shot at least once = hit at least once? Relevant what kind of gun? What kind of bullet? |

Is their progression related to guns or bullets? Or bullet-proof material? Are they testing something out? Did anyone (or an audience) watch them get shot? Was it one person who was shooting them all? |

Bravo Quovynyte and players, all! A quickie indeed. ************** SPOILER *************** "Carolina Ballesteros, who is the company's design director and Caballero's fiancée, told me that being shot by her boyfriend is 'very normal': he has more than two hundred employees and has shot most of them (including Ballesteros) at least once, a practice that encourages team loyalty and close attention to quality control." --"Survival of the Fitted: The Rise of Bulletproof Couture," by David Owen, The New Yorker Magazine, Sept. 26, 2011, an article about a Colombian company that designs and makes bulletproof fashions for executives, celebrities, politicians, etc. |

Haha, what a great puzzle... Now I know what I'll be doing when owning a gun and having problems at the office :-) I'll start shooting people around randomly and when asked why I'll say that I'm encouraging team loyalty, improving quality control, etc :-) Too bad I work in IT, but I guess throwing a Hard Disk Drive in the direction of a colleague might elicit the same type of response, albeit with less fatalities |
