Employees as "resources" I've heard of, but employees as displacement or maybe even ballast? Damn! That's a new one by me.

That's not how it works in practice. If anything, it pre-filters the next group of haters so you don't have to deal with them in the future, but it also lines up the sensible people.

Say nothing. Drop off your stuff and walk. Easy.

It makes me wonder why that DNS server is being that way. Switching away from it just sidestepped the issue.

You could probably record the band with a SDR from another location and just replay it on a loop. Both time and space measurements would be affected.

But you really don’t want to do this in any way that could possibly leak out. You will make a bunch of connections you never wanted to make.
