Here's a potential process:
Whatever shredding truck shows up - note company and make noise to lawyers on speed dial.
GOP/Trump/ whoever in the election lawsuit game serves company with one or more preservation orders.
If it's a rental then follow it and do the above to whichever company is at the destination.
If they buy a shredding machine themselves then local hands get dirty.
General Printer shenanigans:
Malicious PostScript print jobs.
Accepting print jobs via SMBv1 so attack that service.
Accepting print jobs via FTP so attack that service.
Accepting print jobs and config via HTTP/S so attack that service. Recon it if using old openssl vuln to heartbleed.
Accepting print jobs via LPD so attack that service.
Configuration via telnet, default creds or maaaaaybe telnetd vulns? (cleartext creds 4 sure).
Configuration or monitoring via SNMP so recon or attack that service.
Config via SSH so attack that service/default creds.
Accepting print jobs in the form of PDFs via fileshare/upload from the above protocols? Weaponize the pdf.
Gain access and it has a local filesystem? DD to network stream and forensically analyze so see past print jobs.
Image processing lib problems? Malicious print job.
Other rendering/manufacturer specific service vulns? Maybe they didn't patch.
Uses some old java client only compatible with 1.6orwhatever.vulnerable for maintenance or job control? Can you host java attack payload on the printer and pop the requesting host? Perhaps congrats on your new end user/admin host you just pivoted to.
According to https://www.nationaldayofprayer.org/history_of_prayer_in_america , the last time a national day of humbling ourselves, fasting, and, prayer was called was in 1918:
President Wilson proclaimed May 11, 1918: ‘It being the duty peculiarly incumbent in a time of war humbly and devoutly to acknowledge our dependence on Almighty God and to implore His aid and protection...I, Woodrow Wilson...proclaim...a Day of Public Humiliation, Prayer and Fasting, and do exhort my fellow-citizens...to pray Almighty God that He may forgive our sins.”
Who would like to join together under Jesus Christ for a day of humbling ourselves, fasting and prayer? From Friday the 27th at sundown until Saturday the 28th at sundown. Reply with "I" below. This way we may coordinate via this site on the unity of our prayers and give each other encouragement through the fast.
From dark to light.
Just look at the entry below. Were the founders merely deists who paid lip service to the one, true and living God?
On May 24, 1774, Thomas Jefferson drafted a Resolution for a Day of Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer to be observed as the British blockaded Boston’s Harbor. Robert Carter Nicholas, Treasurer, introduced the Resolution in the Virginia House of Burgesses, and, with support of Patrick Henry, Richard Henry Lee and George Mason, it passed unanimously: “This House, being deeply impressed with apprehension of the great dangers, to be derived to British America, from the hostile invasion of the City of Boston, in our sister Colony of Massachusetts... deem it highly necessary that the said first day of June be set apart, by the members of this House as a Day of Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer, devoutly to implore the Divine interposition, for averting the heavy calamity which threatens destruction to our civil rights...Ordered, therefore that the Members of this House do attend...with the Speaker, and the Mace, to the Church in this City, for the purposes aforesaid; and that the Reverend Mr. Price be appointed to read prayers, and the Reverend Mr. Gwatkin, to preach a sermon.”
George Washington wrote in his diary, June 1, 1774: “Went to church, fasted all day.”
Virginia’s Royal Governor, Lord Dunmore, interpreted this Resolution as a veiled protest against King George III, and dissolved the House of Burgesses, resulting in legislators meeting in Raleigh Tavern where they conspired to form the first Continental Congress.
Appropriate since the Wizard of Oz was a political commentary criticizing the fiat currency system.

The movie was nerfed for normie consumption. For example, ctrl-f "silver" on the text ebook below to confirm that the slippers were originally silver, not ruby (representing bi-metal currency) as stated in the article above.

I was thinking about what to write while working outside this morning and yesterday.
You're right that I do have a lot going on and the cadence will more akin to letter writing than IRC/forum responses. I'll quickly send what I have to keep this going.
I believe the US is being judged as a nation for turning away from God and starting up the modern day child sacrifices (abortion) among other abominations just like the ancient kindoms of Israel. Humbling ourselves, repenting, and turning to then seeking Jesus is the only way. We've seen a taste of what evil awaits if we do not.
Your questions, reasoning, reconsiderations, and human understanding are very similar to Job's. God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and loving beyond comprehension. The Father is also a just, spiritual being whose holiness alone will destroy man in His presence stained by any sin. That's His nature (curiously sinful angels and unclean spirits can be in his presence if He allows it). He decided to create beings and gift them with free will - spiritual beings with spiritual bodies (angels) and flesh bodies (man). God is sovereign. He decided free will would be the path to take with man and angels. He also knew many would not choose Him. Those who would not do so would corrupt others due to making the free choice to be spectacularly evil. I see where you're coming from - we both value life and can't imagine a loving God letting us choose the path to destruction, but it is ours to choose.. and when we choose a path of sin, we can not be in his presence. Despite being prideful sinful wicked hearted beings who scoff at our creator, he still provides us a way back to Him. The Way (as it's called in the bible - most call it Christianity) transforms us who make the choice to love and draw near the Father through belief, obedience, and love of Jesus Christ his son.
Did I address everything? No. However I wanted to plant the seed that in the end the reasoning in the post I'm responding to seems to assume the Lord may gift true free will or be infinitely loving, but not both. Let's start with this - even if the next post goes in a completely different direction. : >
I should cite the scriptures but I wanted to respond before crashing. It was important to talk and not leave these questions undiscussed.
There are so many paths to The Way (what it's referred to in the bible. The term Christian was the original 'Deplorables' derogatory name bestowed by the scoffing residents of Antioch, a roman city, then worn proudly). Some are called personally by Jesus, others study evil and see they are helplessly powerless against sin and demonic powers, others read and their eyes are opened, still others are ministered too by other believers, and so on.
Your foundations are prayer, reading the Word of God and fellowship. Any one of these can be used as a gateway by Jesus Christ. All are needed to grow.
You'll need a bible.
https://www.biblicaltraining.org/ - really nice course outlines for differing familiarity levels. Their bible survey course will be really useful to any beginner.
Regarding fellowship ("your church"): is Jesus the focus? Is the Word of God dominant or is the world dominant?
Of course if any other followers of the Lord Jesus Christ find error in my advice I will happily accept rebuke!

Psalm 64 and ooooh...
2 Samuel 22
22 And David spoke to the Lord the words of this song on the day when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. 2 He said,
“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
3 my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation,
my stronghold and my refuge,
my savior; you save me from violence.
4 I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised,
and I am saved from my enemies.
5 “For the waves of death encompassed me,
the torrents of destruction assailed me;
6 the cords of Sheol entangled me;
the snares of death confronted me.
7 “In my distress I called upon the Lord;
to my God I called.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry came to his ears.
8 “Then the earth reeled and rocked;
the foundations of the heavens trembled
and quaked, because he was angry.
9 Smoke went up from his nostrils,
and devouring fire from his mouth;
glowing coals flamed forth from him.
10 He bowed the heavens and came down;
thick darkness was under his feet.
11 He rode on a cherub and flew;
he was seen on the wings of the wind.
12 He made darkness around him his canopy,
thick clouds, a gathering of water.
13 Out of the brightness before him
coals of fire flamed forth.
14 The Lord thundered from heaven,
and the Most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows and scattered them;
lightning, and routed them.
16 Then the channels of the sea were seen;
the foundations of the world were laid bare,
at the rebuke of the Lord,
at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 “He sent from on high, he took me;
he drew me out of many waters.
18 He rescued me from my strong enemy,
from those who hated me,
for they were too mighty for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
but the Lord was my support.
20 He brought me out into a broad place;
he rescued me, because he delighted in me.
21 “The Lord dealt with me according to my righteousness;
according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord
and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all his rules were before me,
and from his statutes I did not turn aside.
24 I was blameless before him,
and I kept myself from guilt.
25 And the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
according to my cleanness in his sight.
26 “With the merciful you show yourself merciful;
with the blameless man you show yourself blameless;
27 with the purified you deal purely,
and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.
28 You save a humble people,
but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.
29 For you are my lamp, O Lord,
and my God lightens my darkness.
30 For by you I can run against a troop,
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
31 This God—his way is perfect;
the word of the Lord proves true;
he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
32 “For who is God, but the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?
33 This God is my strong refuge
and has made my[d] way blameless.
34 He made my feet like the feet of a deer
and set me secure on the heights.
35 He trains my hands for war,
so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
36 You have given me the shield of your salvation,
and your gentleness made me great.
37 You gave a wide place for my steps under me,
and my feet[f] did not slip;
38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them,
and did not turn back until they were consumed.
39 I consumed them; I thrust them through, so that they did not rise;
they fell under my feet.
40 For you equipped me with strength for the battle;
you made those who rise against me sink under me.
41 You made my enemies turn their backs to me,
those who hated me, and I destroyed them.
42 They looked, but there was none to save;
they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
43 I beat them fine as the dust of the earth;
I crushed them and stamped them down like the mire of the streets.
44 “You delivered me from strife with my people;
you kept me as the head of the nations;
people whom I had not known served me.
45 Foreigners came cringing to me;
as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me.
46 Foreigners lost heart
and came trembling out of their fortresses.
47 “The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock,
and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation,
48 the God who gave me vengeance
and brought down peoples under me,
49 who brought me out from my enemies;
you exalted me above those who rose against me;
you delivered me from men of violence.
50 “For this I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations,
and sing praises to your name.
51 Great salvation he brings to his king,
and shows steadfast love to his anointed,
to David and his offspring forever.”
I heard a lecture once mentioning that during our journey with God He requires we sacrifice any obstacles to the journey. Maybe you left your strength in flesh on His altar? Take care brother and praise our Father, Jesus, and Holy Spirit!
