I knew I had the right guys as I realized that none of them were asking me for details about what happened.
I know of a Bishop once being told that, during his time serving, he would likely offend everyone in the ward. He responded with “Do I have to spread it out over the five years, or can I just stand up and do it all at once to get it over with?”.
