ok, then this example may be appropriate
Occupants (all awesome folks) occupy a boat (previously leak proof and well built) that has, well, a leak
Rescue helicopter flies over. It has "Hiring Boom 2022 Pick Your Airline" painted on the door. "Do you need help"
Nah, but thank you. We are gonna try to get this fixed. "Ok, we are out of here"
Months later, the leak continues, land is nowhere to be seen and storm clouds exist on the distant horizon.
"We should have told that rescue helicopter we needed help"
"Yeah, we SHOULD have. But it is too late now. That rescue helicopter may never come back, so lets just embrace this situation"
soon, another rescue helicopter, with "HIRING CONTINUING BUT MAY SLOW" painted on the door flies over. "Hey do you guys need help down there?"
best of luck brothers
