Well, it didn't quite work out for the engineer who thought he would have a fun conference instead of a working one. The invisible became the visible as now he's tasked with making arrangements for the installment of new gadgets. Instead of being sad, he could turn this opportunity into a happy moment, especially since he was chosen to be the first person to work on the project. It all depends on how one looks at the situation.
Thanks for sharing this lovely read. Take care.
