🚨 LOST: 60 Cyber Robots! 🚨

Over the past 6 years, we’ve somehow *misplaced* 60 (yes, SIXTY) cyber robots. It seems our "state-of-the-art" security couldn't stop them from wandering off on their own (or with our guests!)…🤖💨

Have you seen one of our rogue robots lurking around in your place of work? 🤔 If you spot a Cyber robot casually sipping coffee or hiding in your office, please send us a photo of its whereabouts 📸

P.S. We’re getting tracking chips next year! 😂

Since being awarded to Citizen of the Year 2024 - Rob Black, this trophy hasn’t even had a chance to rest! ✈️

From being scrutinized by airport security to visiting iconic landmarks like the CN Tower in Toronto, Edinburgh Castle, and Niagara Falls. 🌊 It’s traveled on the Caledonian Sleeper Train 🚂, and even had the thrill of sitting atop an Apache helicopter 🚁, a Tornado fast jet ✈️, and various tanks! 🚜

Two weeks, and it’s already a world traveler! 🌍 What an adventure – where will it go next?
