When the CEO says "FORE," let go of CTRL!
So there I am, on a table, minding my own business. I'm charging up my seltzer bottle without a care in the world. Then, for no reason, the CEO turns to look at me as if I'd done something wrong. Honestly, what does a little water hurt? Anyway, he gets all bent out of shape and throws gears at me -- as if that's a proportional response to a little water squirt!
Fine. I can play that. My lightning-fast ring finger is in top shape and I hit ESC in plenty of time. Unfortunately, my molasses-slow thumb is still on the CTRL key. So instead of just hitting ESC, I've hit Ctrl+ESC, which is the same thing as hitting the Windows key, which is the same thing as clicking on the Start menu.
So my Start menu pops up, Toontown fades into the background, and I think I hear the maniacal laughter of the CEO as his gears take their toll on a poor toon who wasn't hurtin' nobody. I scramble to find the mouse and click on the Toontown window to bring it back up before that tank-driver-with-a-learner's-permit runs me over. Of course I'm too late.
My thumb and I have come to an understanding and he'll be taking lessons from my ring finger. I hope they have their act together next time! Thumb up, ring finger down, thumb up, ring finger down. One two one two...
