French Toast - Part II

Ok...visualise this...you are hired by the Government to bring glory to the nation because you are the top man for the job. You were outstanding as a youngster. Precocious in fact. However, you did ok only in the preliminary stages; just about achieving the bosses' targets. But the Government and the rest of the people still had faith in you to get the job done. Besides, everyone needs a little time to adapt to your work and bond and inspire your team members. Lately though, when the world was watching you on the biggest stage, you and your team mates didn't turn up. Let's just say you didn't do a good job. Naturally, you are getting so much criticism from everyone you personally don't know and about to lose your job after a very disappointing two weeks of work. What would you do?

People under such circumstances would normally defend themselves or avoid talking to anyone, particularly the media. Or perhaps they would at least promise to make amends of everything by putting a better show next time. They could even reveal drafts of their future plans to everyone. Or maybe even make a public apology at the very least. However, this situation is anything but normal. This guy decided to proposed to his girlfriend! Not the most romantic situation...even I can identify that.
