Practical Diplomacy, Wednesday, January 17, 2018

Today the students found themselves in the Danger Shop, where a podium was standing at the front of a large room full of reporters. "Today we're going to have a practical exercise in diplomacy," Anakin said. "For a vast majority of your life, you are not going to be the lead diplomat in a room. You will, however, be the one who probably briefed the head diplomat, and upon your head will the anger be heaped if he, she, it, or they get embarrassed, even if it's not your fault."

And sometimes your boss turns out to just be super evil, but that was a scenario for another time.

"Your boss is about to address a group of reporters," he said. "He has not read your briefing notes, trusting instead on knowledge he gained from Force knows where. He is about to make a huge, intergalactic meme-worthy ass of himself." He smiled and began the program. "What do you do to stop it from happening? Or do you just let it play out?"
