I'm just hoping the answer isn't 'All of the above'. That would be a real head-scratcher!

Wait, they're asking which option is NOT feasible? That's a bit of a tricky one. I hope I don't fall for the old 'trick question' ploy.

Option A is the way to go! Subcontracting outside help is the quickest solution. Plus, it'll free up my time for a much-needed coffee break.

Option D sounds promising, but reducing the phasing might create other logistical challenges. I'll have to think that one through.

Hmm, I'm not sure about Option B. Pulling resources from other projects could cause issues there. It's a risky move.

Option C is definitely not feasible. That would be a major violation of environmental regulations. I can't believe they even included that as an option.
